On their second album Happy Now, vocalist/guitarist Nikki Sisti, vocalist/bassist Kate Black, and vocalist/drummer Shari Page deliver their most complex and confessional work yet, exploring everything from self-sabotage and insecurity to victim-blaming and destructive relationships. Raw, irreverent, and brutally honest, Happy Now ultimately offers both joyful catharsis and much-needed instruction for living well in turbulent times.  “Most of our songs lean toward optimism, even when there’s a lot of pain in them,” says Sisti, who refers to THICK’s output as a “living diary.” “It’s not about toxic positivity or trying to force yourself into happiness; it’s about recognizing that it’s okay to feel a whole spectrum of emotions, and then getting to the other side and really growing from your experiences.” https://thick.band/ TVOD Drenched in beer, sweat and emotion TVOD’s unapologetically raw stage performances have become infamous around New York City since forming in 2019. Hailed as “loud and fun and good” by Oh My Rockness the band is hell bent on bathing in the blood of punk rock infamy.  https://televisionoverdose.bandcamp.com/ Xanny Stars https://xannystars.bandcamp.com/
