A Thriller In Our Midst
A Thriller In Our Midst

What happens after your opinion-dividing indie band fades away and you find yourself back where you started? For Thrills’ sticksman Ben Carrigan the answer is clear: you reinvent yourself as a sensitive songwriter with aspirations to write for the screen.

“It’s like a past life now, the whole Thrills thing, to be honest,” admits Ben Carrigan, with a relaxed shrug. “Which is kind of nice because it’s good to always feel like you’re moving forward as opposed to looking back and wondering what might have been.”

The Greatest Narrators is out now on Small Town Records. Visit www.bencarriagn.com.
