Dropped back in April, it marks some-what of comeback for, and they followed it up a year later with the explosive single ‘Be Like Them’. But like most up-and-coming bands lacking the privilege to power on without shows, Good Thanks were knocked out of action by the pandemic. So, as the Australian touring scene roars back to life, so too have Good Thanks – and we couldn’t be more stoked about it.
