The Thirst - My Everything
With 2008's SXSW already under their belts, next is a tour of Japan, the summer festival circuit, and a regional tour, but the lads have also been working with Pete Doherty: "Yeah, we're collaborating on his new album," says Kwame. "Whilst being stranded after a gig in Manchester, Pete took pity and brought us back to his place." The result was a late night jamming session and upcoming top secret track.
"Our entire lives have been dedicated to music and succeeding with it," says Mensah. "We want it so bad. There is no greater love for us."

"The Thirst, who are from Brixton and doing their first South by Southwest, were in my top five. They are a great band, young and vibrant, and their music is really fresh and original. And, seeing them live, you could see why Ronnie Wood of the Rolling Stones fell in love with them and got them a record deal" The Guardian (BBC6's Tom Robinson on SXSW)page << 1 2 >>
