Anders Thomsen has deep roots. This midwestern boy grew up on the music that makes America. The Twang of the Opry on a Saturday night, the Rock n Roll on the stereos in the Chevys and the Fords and the Blues and Soul spilling out of the nightclubs he snuck into. He heard all that and made it his own.

He picked up the heartbreak and the joy of the blues, and matched it with the lonesome, lovelorn hillbilly waltz and powered it all with those rock and roll V-8s.

He got an early start, playing in bars and nightclubs before he was old enough to drive, sometimes even with a note from his mother. He sang, played guitar, played bass and even played the washtub. Anything to get him on stage to learn the craft.

Cut Throat Finches: An ironic name for a tiny bird, with a giant Texas sound. Currently hold title of FWTX Mag’s “Best Live Band in Ft Worth TX” (Editors Choice). This Americana-ish rock band shares an affection for indie/alt rock royalty and have been described as “what you would get if you dropped a big British band right in the heart of Texas”. Their studio writing blends together like flavors in a hand crafted cocktail that beg for the next long drink. Cut Throat Finches lure in their crowd with infectious melodies and personality to spare.

Singer-songwriter Sean Russell, a proud resident and advocate of the Fort Worth Texas music scene, formed the band mid-2015 with a group of much-lauded players from the area (Taylor Tatsch- guitar / Eric Webb- keys / Draya Ruse- Drums/ Rob Paine- bass ).This band receives a healthy dose of radio and press being recognized for their writing and performing, being nominated over the past three albums, for album of the year, rock band of the year, and more. CTF just released their 4th studio album, “Unraveled” and are hitting the road through summer and fall of 2024 to promote from Colorado to Tennessee.
