Ringside
2005
During this time, was introduced to Balthazar Getty, who was kinda making a name for himself as an actor. Soon, moved in together. Getty would make up beats on an SP-1200 while Thomas strummed out songs on an acoustic.
Gradually, the more serious songs from the darkest and most difficult times worked their way in. Eventually, the stuff wound up in the hands of some labels. Signed to Flawless/Gef f e n and finished Riiiiingside . |
