Based out of Southern California, Thrift is characterized by noisy garage rock tones mixed with pulsating rhythms and powerhouse vocals. The band aims to captivate audiences and listeners with their easily distinguishable sound. Anna Carmela (bass and vocals) refers to their style as "dirty disco," or, in other words, garage rock-meets-pop.
“The term “dirty disco” came from my producer, Brent Setterington, and I think it fits so well with Thrift because it describes both sides of the influences – the distorted, dark tones as well as the danceable grooves.” Anna said. Thrift seeks to grip audiences and listeners alike with the in-your-face production style, lead vocal intensity, wailing bass and guitar hooks, and fierce live performances.
Their brand new song, “Bombshell” was written by Anna, and she said “The song about being in an abusive relationship, but I wanted to touch on the primal side of that. In my situation, I began losing my own sense of self and almost enjoyed being treated so poorly, so a lot of the lyrics reflect that theme.”
Next opportunity to see them live is with us! Don’t miss their performance at Hunnypot Live at The MINT April 16th!
