Rock Trio from Oxford, England now based in LA

About Me

Take the vibe and attitude of old school rock, fuse it with a modern edge, get some serious playing, mix it with real songs and youd be getting close to what The Thieves sound like.
Ridiculously rocking and catchy... expect big things. GIANT
"Verdict: it’s just an E.P, But this could drop huge." - Drum!
"What makes The Thieves’ album so significant is the fact that the band took their time to write hooks and didn’t settle for repetitive power chords throughout the album. Tales from the White Line might as well be renamed Blues Rock Album of the Year." - Outburn

Where have we been?

Somehow we got distracted. England was supposed to be a quick trip. But, country ales, fry-ups and a wedge of new music kept us in pastures green for a month more than anticipated.However, back in Cal...

Tour Diary - March 2006

31st March - HalRexs aint so much a gig, as a drinking session! We made the fatal move of going well over-board upon our first visit here and weve suffered the wrath ever since; we gave ourselves the ...

Back on the road again...

We finished 2005 as a bunch of worn-out, badly-fed, bruised and pickled Vampires. We'd relentlessly toured the US (4 times), recorded an album, slept in vans, eaten crap, drunk more than the average ...
