"They will cradle you in their arms and spin webs of thought that lift the swaddled listener out of the fray to be soothed awhile in the thoughts of another. They will remind you that the walls in your head don't belong to you, and excite your spirit in awkward moments of unabashed honesty, that warn you that you must walk into the woods to come out the other side. However, winter's almost gone, and there is room for things to germinate.

Gary Husband

Husband is one of a rare breed of musicians in that his expression is divided equally in his capacity as a drummer and a keyboardist of international repute. His classical roots, his quest and development in the improvisational, jazz and jazz/fusion areas - not to mention his tenure in the pop, rock, funk and blues circuits - are all evident inside Gary's distinct and far-reaching musical personality.

Third Man Theme

Third Man Theme make music that blends together their different musical interests, including Talking Heads, Can, Neu!, The Beach Boys, The Modern Lovers, Spiritualized, and Lizzy Mercier Descloux. The result is sometimes (post-)punky, sometimes drony, sometimes edgy, sometimes sweet, sometimes all at once. Their debut EP, Tears on Tate, was released in July 2011.
