Artist History THIRDHAND STARTED IN 1996 WITH A 4-TRACK, A GUITAR AND A DELAY PEDAL. HAVING JUST BEEN INTRODUCED TO ELECTRONIC MUSIC WE BEGAN TO EXPERIMENT WITH A THICK HYBRID SOUND. AS TIME PROGERSSED WE BECAME A BIT MORE PURIST IN OUR PURSUITS, DISCOVERING THAT WE COULD EXPRESS OURSELVES FAR MORE CLEARLY THROUGH ELECTRONICS. WE HAD OUR DEBUT AT BROKEN BEAT LOUNGE IN RICHMOND VA IN 1998. HAVING AN EXTREMELY WARM RECEPTION WE DECIDED TO CONTINUE, PRODUCING OUR FIRST CD A LITTLE MORE THAN A YEAR LATER.
