Taren Point Hotel Presents... Thirsty Merc, Friday 24th November, Doors Open 8pm.

After over a decade of making music, they're still as thirsty as ever.

They've released an indie EP, which garnered triple J airplay back in 2003, three critically acclaimed studio albums, an acoustic fan favourites record entitled 'AAA: Acoustic Anniversary Album' and a swag of classic tracks such as "20 Good Reasons", "Emancipate Myself", "Someday Someday", "Mousetrap Heart" and "In The Summertime." Australian rock stalwarts Thirsty Merc are still excited to be making music, and hungrier than ever before to extend their legacy.

Vocalist and songwriter Rai Thistlethwayte says, "We've haven't really stopped since 2002, and being around for over a decade, we've got lots more experience than when we started. We've also got still got loads of energy, and we want to harness that energy to work hard, around the clock, to continue touring and making good music."

After selling over 200, 000 records through Warner Music, this time round, Thirsty Merc are tackling the recording and release of their fourth studio album independently, and very differently.
