Th' Faith Healers

The brief excerpt below is borrowed from Horst Prillinger's site that he put together a looooooooong time ago. He is probably their number one fan. His site is the most comprehensive TFH site on the web. Almost 10 years ago I signed the guest list on his fan page and he actually mailed me a cassette of their music that I couldn't find (L') here in the states. I like to think that I am their number two fan and when they want the keys to this page to do their own thing, I will gladly and willingly hand them over. I only wish for more people to hear their beautiful sound, let them know about their upcoming shows and perhaps help them sell a few more records. Tom's guitar is truly one of a kind and Roxanne's voice. unstoppable! When I saw they would be playing SXSW, I had goosebumps for at least ten minutes.



"This site is dedicated to the memory of Th' Faith Healers, the first band on the London-based label Too Pure. They recorded a couple of EPs and two LPs between 1990 and 1993, and although their singles reached the UK Indie Top Twenty, their success might best be described as "moderate" - which I personally can't understand - surely everyone who hears them must notice their utter brilliance.



They disbanded in 1994 after a tour to the States. Roxanne wanted to return to art college, Joe to his photographic studio, while Ben returned to his job as a tree surgeon and Tom formed a new band called Quickspace.



In early 2006, th' Healers regrouped for a number of concerts in Berlin, the USA and London. There are no immediate plans to record new material."
