Thanks Mom are an authentic shed band with a plethora of singles & two albums under their belt. Their first album was called "not good". They then went on to release our second album last year, “Do u wanna like, go home?” Trading in themes like life, death, sadness, friendship, self-hatred, and feelings of giving up.

On September 28th thanks mom released "if you want me". Which tells the story about the desperate desire to fit in. “One of the 100 best Irish songs of 2023” by Radio Nova 100.

This August 16th thanks mom will be releasing the long awaited "why don't u like me anymore" on all platforms.

thanks mom has had a great year gigging across Ireland playing at venues such as The Workman's Club as part of Ireland Music Week, The Grand Social, The Button Factory (headlining at The Based Festival),The Sound House Dublin, HMV Dublin, The Naas Bealtaine Festival, The Launch of Toales Venue Dundalk, Battle of the Bands-The Anvil, Darky Kellys, Bintfest, Culture Night, IADT Talent Search and Forest Fest Emo 2023!

Thanks Mom are currently working on more new material which will be released this coming spring.

Press have said:

“thanks mom are by far and away ahead of most new artists coming through right now, leading the charge of pure genius lyrics wrapped in the most mind bendingly wonderful anthemic soundscapes. Thank God for thanks mom!”
