Its renewed release marks a major moment for a group whose influence has quietly echoed through Scotland's indie landscape for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginally formed in 1992 in Bellshill, Scotland. At the heart of THRUM are Monica Queen and Johnny Smillie, a partnership defined by contrast and chemistry. Queen's voice—soulful, wounded, fearless—remains one of the most distinctive in Scottish music, capable of shifting from intimate hush to soaring gospel-tinged fire. Smillie, her long-time collaborator, shapes the band's sonic backbone with his signature guitar work and production: sharp-edged, tender, and meticulously crafted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, they create songs that balance rawness with beauty, grit with grace. THRUM's sound threads the line between power-pop, Americana, and Glasgow's jangling indie heritage—always with an emotional directness that sets them apart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith Rifferama stepping back into circulation and a renewed hunger for the stage, THRUM are gearing up for Rifferama Revisited 7 day run of live shows in July 2026, bringing their timeless songwriting to both long-time fans and new audiences discovering them for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir performances—honest, dynamic, and richly melodic—capture everything that has made THRUM endure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTHRUM are ready to bring Rifferama back to life, louder and brighter than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"yj6qo\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thrum","offers":[{"title":"G.A Ticket (Inc SBF)","offer_id":55522226012536,"sku":null,"price":17.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0348\/2704\/2955\/files\/ThrumSQ.jpg?v=1775467884","url":"https:\/\/www.crashrecords.co.uk\/products\/thrum-09-07-26-lending-room","provider":"Crash Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
