Thrift Store Hooker

About Me

Thrift Store Hooker came together in 2007 in Torrance, CA with one goal in mind, to create interesting / artistic music that challenges the band as artists while demanding the audience to listen.Thrift Store Hooker is attempting to create music that is important while still keeping a sense of humor and as the band has evolved, the mission becomes closer to being recognized. Thrift Store Hooker has come a long way in a very short period of time and if the past is any indication of the future, you will likely be hearing a lot from this band. Thrift Store Hooker is planning on recording it’s first offering sometime in Jan/Feb with the release scheduled before summer. Give this band a listen and come along as the band grows into what is predicted to be, something we will all remember for a long, long time.
