It Take A Thief features Lebanese Blonde, the beautiful song used on the Grammy award-winning Garden State Soundtrack, as well as Sound the Alarm, the funk infused track that has become a staple opening track for the band s live shows. We ve always been a little hesitant of putting together a retrospective cd, Rob Garza said. But looking back and realizing it s been almost 15 years since we started, we figured maybe now is the time. These tracks are some of our favorite moments.
Thievery Corporation has released 5 studio albums to date and has sold over 1.5 million records since 1998. Thievery s tracks have been licensed for film, tv and advertisements including True Blood, Entourage, Six Feet Under, CSI, Skyy Vodka, Jaguar, Lexus, EA Sports and many others. They have collaborated with a diverse number of artists from The Flaming Lips to Femi Kuti, and remixed a spectrum of artists from the Doors to David Byrne.
Their infectious live show features 15 musicians and a carousel of performers unlike any other live band playing today. In 2009, Thievery Corporation sold out 2 nights at New York s Terminal 5, and recently finished a 13 date European tour including Morocco, Rome, Athens, Paris, Berlin and Amsterdam. The band is preparing to announce a major US tour for the fall of 2010 and is recording a new album to be released in 2011.
