One of Australia’s most loved bands, THIRSTY MERC, has

announced dates for their national SPRING Tour, which will see

them play twenty-four dates through seven states and territories

this October/November. Kicking off in regional New South

Wales, the tour gives the homegrown four-piece an opportunity

to deliver new hits and old favourites to fans around the country.

Following on from the hugely successful ‘Mousetrap Heart’

album tour earlier this year, and with some 300 shows under

their belt, THIRSTY MERC have proven why they are one of

Australia’s premier live music acts. With each live performance

the band showcases an unrivalled level of musicianship paired

with an infectious passion and absolute commitment to the

delivery of their cleverly crafted songs. They will step it up a

notch for the SPRING Tour with a new live show and a few

surprises to keep loyal fans on their toes.

‘Tommy & Krista’, the second single from THIRSTY MERC’S

Top 15 ARIA Chart album MOUSETRAP HEART is already

gaining an enthusiastic reaction at radio across Australia, landing

#5 Most Added* in it’s first week. It’s an addictive piano-driven

pop classic from the pen of Rai Thistlethwayte that immediately

pulls you in and takes you on a trip down memory lane, with an

abundance of addictive hooks and good old-fashioned story

telling

The latest single follows on from the title track from the new

album, Mousetrap Heart, which was extremely well received:

rising to #1 most played Aussie act on radio nationally.

Recorded in Los Angeles with super producer Matt Wallace

[Faith No More, Maroon 5], the album MOUSETRAP HEART

signifies a revamped and reinvigorated THIRSTY MERC, and

reintroduces the band with a dynamic new sound. The Sydney

outfit are clearly feeling refreshed, and you can hear it in the

music. Everything is tighter and funkier, with an unmistakable

bounce in their step.

Catch THIRSTY MERC in concert this October/November for an

unforgettable live music experience.
