Currently, Thea is taking a hiatus from the band setting and live performances until the end of 2005 to concentrate on writing songs for her sophomore album. She and her husband, Peter are also expecting their first child in July! Even though motherhood will certainly change her schedule, Thea intends to keep writing and playing music. Last year in July, she gave birth to a CD, this year it's going to be a baby boy! Perhaps in July 2006 it will be another CD, and the year after, another baby??!!??!!??

Thea K returns to the USA after playing to appreciative audiences in London, England. The new Species Closeout CD gets sold and played in Ibiza, Spain, London, England, and is on it's way to Sri Lanka! Not bad distribution for a first month on the shelves. The CD release party is scheduled for Tuesday, September 14th at The C-Note in Manhattan's East Village. There will be a free raffle of CDs and other Thea K merchandise.

Thea K is receiving airplay on Radio Crystal Blue and is to be featured in the "Future Star" segment on Sunday October 3, 2004. The show is on every Sunday 7pm-1am ET, a free listen on Live365! or the Radio Crystal Blue archive pages for those that miss the show.

On a sad note (pun intended) Peter Sampson is leaving the band to pursue scholarly endeavors, so Thea has decided to take a break from playing with a trio to focus on writing songs for her second CD. She will continue to play some occasional acoustic gigs and will probably reform the trio when the new songs are ready.

Thea K just played some very successful shows in New York City. There is also a final release date for the debut Species Closeout CD. It will be available for sale July 24th on this web site and at online stores like CDBaby, Tower Records, and Amazon.com.

A lot is happening now that Thea has recovered from her surgery. Some full band shows are scheduled for May and June. Mixing on the debut full-length CD called Species Closeout is almost finished. It contains 11 songs and over 45 minutes of quality music and was recorded and engineered by Scott Clark at Mercy Sound Studios in New York City with a couple of tracks also recorded by Jason LaFarge at Seizures Palace in Brooklyn, with Ed Ruokonen on drums. Anticipated release date is in early June. Check back soon for information on where to purchase it, hear song samples and attend the CD release party.

Tuesday March 2, 2004
The recording of the debut full-length CD is mostly done, except for a few guitar parts. In the meantime, Thea is going into the hospital on March 9th for some necessary surgery. (No, it's not plastic surgery!) In other important news, the band name has been changed from "Thea" to "Thea K" to avoid confusion with the many other Thea's out there. Apparently there are a lot of other musicians and singer-songwriters named Thea. Go figure.
