Thrice hit the road again

News 10 May 10 By


“a brooding, at times Radiohead-esque post-rock groove with a hint of blues that makes it the band’s most atmospheric record to date.” – REVOLVER

“the textbook example of the term ‘creative milestone.’” – 4 1/2 stars ALTERNATIVE PRESS

“…towering heights reached, a warm ethereality at its heart, and excellent musicianship demonstrated constantly.” – OUTBURN

Orange County-based Thrice now have a second leg of dates ready to announce for their long-awaited headlining tour this summer.  Thrice was recently forced to cancel their co-headlining tour with Manchester Orchestra due to a family emergency, but they’re now prepared to get back on the road with Kevin Devine, Bad Veins, and The Dig.  The whole shebang kicks off in San Francisco, CA on June 3, and winds down closer to their home turf, in Pomona, CA on July 17.  Thrice is currently promoting their sixth and latest studio album, Beggars (09/09 Vagrant).  Presale tickets for the second leg of the tour are available May 11 at 1:00 PM local time in each city via http://thrice.ducatking.com.  Tickets go on sale to the public on May 17.

Thrice have received numerous accolades for Beggars, including the #5 spot on Alternative Press’ “Best Albums of 2009” list.  Also known to consistently deliver a great live show, OC Weekly more recently named Thrice’s Nov 25 date at House of Blues Anaheim in their “Top 10 Orange County Concerts of 2009.”  Additionally, the OC Music Awards nominated Thrice for Best Album, Best Alternative, and Best Rock.  Harnessing their own creative powers, Thrice have recorded both their 2007/2008 double release The Alchemy Index and 2009’s Beggars at their own studio in Orange County, with guitarist Teppei Teranishi in the producer’s chair.

Thrice is Dustin Kensrue – vocals/guitar, Teppei Teranishi – guitar/piano, Edward Breckenridge – bass, and Riley Breckenridge – drums.
