Company Of Thieves - Oscar Wilde (HD) - Live at Bowery Ballroom in Manhattan, NYC 6/13/11

Company Of Thieves - Oscar Wilde (HD) - Live at Bowery Ballroom in Manhattan, NYC June 13, 2011 Company of Thieves are rooted in Chicago, IL, where vocalist Genevieve Schatz and guitarist Marc Walloch launched the co-ed indie rock group after striking up a friendship at Union Station. Mike Ortiz climbed aboard to handle drum duties, and the trio formed a unique sound that embraced both Fiona Apple's articulate songwriting and Denali's altera-rock muscle. Released independently in May 2007, the debut album Ordinary Riches helped the band boost its following in the Windy City, and Company of Thieves soon graduated from coffeehouse gigs to more traditional venues. National press outlets took notice, as did Wind Up Records, which signed the trio in 2008 and reissued Ordinary Riches in early 2009 and debuted at #5 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart. The label released the band's sophomore effort, Running From a Gamble, in 2011. The past few years have been busy and fruitful for Company of Thieves, which is now rounded out by drummer Chris Faller. Founded in their teens, Company of Thieves' members already conduct themselves like veterans, even though they're still just in their mid-20s. The band toured nonstop, hitting the road with groups like Annuals, OK Go, and The Hold Steady, and along the way played Lollapalooza, Last Call With Carson Daly, and Live From Daryl's House. https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/company-of-thieves/id264474683 www.companyofthieves.net/ www.facebook.com/companyofthieves www.youtube.com/artist/company-of-thieves https://twitter.com/cotlife
