====== The River Thieves ======

Alternative Rock\\
Farnborough, England, United Kingdom

The River Thieves formed in 1991, originally comprised of Tim Sherrington (vocals/guitar), Steve Bray (guitar), Mike Boylan (bass), Jo Clyne (keyboards), and Paul Ruske (drums). Clyne left in Oct 1990. In 1991 this Farnborough based combo were initially turned down for Greenbelt, but their demo and badgering got them a last minute 'new band' slot in The Twilight Zone. They were so well received that they filled a Main Stage cancellation the next day. They self-released a 3-track cassette EP titled //Winter// in mid '91, and received some interest from record companies, with their U2-esque sound. In '92 "Tear It All Down" appeared on //Son of Farnborough Groove Volume 2//. In Sept that year Sherrington left and went on to form ministry-orientated rock band [[The Electric Revival]]; Boylan and Bray picked up vocal duties. Return of //Farnborough Grove Volume 3// carried "Winter" and the //Never Heard of 'Em// compilation carried "Sacrifice" in '93 and the band continued with Ruske eventually replaced by Johnny Gill to become Inter in 1995.
