  • Bio

    .. The Thrives .. It's all rockets from the get-go, like sweet engines. Whirlwind and flash. Action and fury. It's shooting the rapids under a peaceful sky... like spinning round, letting go and somehow finding yourself centered. The music is melodic... and chaotic, hookey... quirky... and flexibly controlled. It's Indie all dressed up. Kemper writhes and squirms. John Bolling's easy cool underscores his melodic lines. Kevin Daboin is thunderous and adventurous behind the kit. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
