Artist Spotlight – I’m No Thief

I’m No Thief is the devilishly handsome offspring of a number of equally handsome bands. With a shared affinity for all things sensational, it is safe to say that the music churned forth by the fearsome quintet is nothing short of terrific. Loud bits that hurt your brain as well a generous splattering of bits that chicks like mean that I’m No Thief cater to a wide audience of intelligent and attractive people. No slouch in the live department either, the band mixes totally vibey musicianship with a hefty dose of running and jumping to create a live show that is hard to forget (hard to remember if you were heaps boozed in the first place, but trust me ALL your friends thought it was rad)…
