Heavy rock band from the north of Scotland, featuring Andrew Myers of 80's funk pop ensemble Gay Andre and the Hippos. Rising from the smouldering ashes of doomed cover band Haggard and avant-garde post folk-rock experimentalists Total Annihilation, Thieving Drunkards released their epic self-titled debut in the summer of 2003 on an unsuspecting village called Drumnadrochit, gaining both fame and noteriety in equal measure. Not content with resting on the laurels of their new found outlaw status, the band began work on the devastating 2005 follow up, The Floaty Journey Of The Leg Spacehog. Working through inner band turmoil, vast financial problems and relationship meltdowns, it proved to be the most rockingest 35 minutes of pure rock that had ever rocked Drumnadrochit. Following a short but legendary tour of the Drumnadrochit village hall, the band retreated in early 2006 to undisclosed locations to deal with undisclosed problems, allegedly related to over-rocking. Spotted occasionally by the most daring of paparazzi, the band members had now supposedly grown their hair to frightening lengths and were rumoured to be working on a new album known only as '3'. Update for 2009! The paparazzi were, as per usual, wrong. The band decided that recording a 4 song EP would be a lot less work, and so set about creating the Blood Vat EP in the summer of 2008. This process went completely smoothly and the EP was released in early 2009 to no reviews or critical acclaim, although the band members themselves were reported to be pleased with the results. Enigmatic front man Andrew Myers is currently living out of the public eye in Canada and eating hash brownies with Daniel Dae Kim. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Thieving+Drunkards">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
