Биография

2022 saw the release of THUMPER's debut album, Delusions of Grandeur - an epic introduction to the bands psych-drenched rumble which landed them support from BBC Radio1, Kerrang, KEXP, as well as a nomination for Irish Album of the Year at the 2023 Choice Prize alongside Fontaines D.C., Just Mustard, CMAT, Dermot Kennedy. Their expansive headline tour took them to Reading and Leeds, Iceland Airwaves, Reeperbahn and more. Now with the spotlight firmly on THUMPER, the band have released a trio of tracks; Summer Assault, Circles and the crowd favourite Unwritten - a ramshackle version of the Natasha Bedingfield classic. This summer catch THUMPER touring in support of this material at festivals such as Mad Cool (Spain), Europavox Festival (France) and many more across Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Ireland and UK.
