The Thinking Men

The Thinking Men are two guys, one girl and a lot of instruments. Playing an interesting and eclectic brand of jazz-influenced blues rock, the band is defined by frontman Johnny Raspin’s stunningly powerful vocal offerings and an array of sounds from multi-instrumentalists Sarah Barsoumian and Ronnie Smith. The band launch their debut EP 'Mirror Test' on 10th November with a launch party at The Bicycle Shop.
