Thirsty Curses is a rock 'n roll band from Raleigh, NC formed by Wilson Getchell in 2017. The band has featured a rotating cast of musicians with Getchell and bassist Clayton Herring serving as the two mainstays. Thirsty Curses' songs are both impassioned and sardonic; comical and foreboding, often dealing with heavy subjects but generally feature a humorous nudge and wink to the audience. Thirsty Curses has released four albums: Holy Moly (2017), All Shook Up (2018), Thirsty Curses (2019), and To the Ends of the Earth (2022). "Thirsty Curses make rock’n’roll, with a boisterous beer-swilling edge to it. Many of these songs are about living it up while things fall apart at the seams, or at least trying to find some glory in chaos and meaninglessness." -John Adamian of YES! Weekly "…an act too good to be this anonymous." -The Big Takeover “Thirsty Curses’ music... sits somewhere between punk and softer indie sounds of the 80s.” -Psychedelic Baby Magazine For fans of The Replacements, Deer Tick, The Hold Steady, Wilco, The Strokes, Old 97's, Big Star, Modest Mouse...
