Biography
THRILL DELUXE was formed in the spring of 2001 in Huntington Beach Ca., by Harlis Sweetwater, singer/guitarist for the critically acclaimed Soul/R & B group Barrelhouse, and Larry Chronic Jr., former Thrill Deluxe Logobassist of another O.C./L.A. based R&B outfit called Soul Candy. Venturing from their Soul/ R& B roots, they set out to make music that had a more mainstream, hard and heavy edge, while maintaining the soulful and emotional quality that defined their previous bands sound. After a succession of drummers, they solidified THRILL DELUXE with fellow Orange County resident Joe Sykes, who was the backbone of the popular Alternative Hard Rock band Ten Mile Tongue. THRILL DELUXE now had 3 solid members, all w/ extensive recording, touring and performing credit. Pulling from music of the past and present, they have created music that is compelling and raw, heavy and dynamic, intense and emotional. Their lyrics are honest, straight- forward and personal. Tackling the subjects of vanity, greed, lust and jealousy and of course love.
