Thrice in Santa Ana

Thrice is an American rock band formed in Irvine, California, in 1998. Their early records The Illusion of Safety and The Artist in the Ambulance established a melodic post-hardcore sound, while Vheissu and the four-part The Alchemy Index moved into broader alternative and experimental rock. Their best-known songs include “Deadbolt,” “The Artist in the Ambulance” and “Black Honey.” The 2012 farewell tour preceded a hiatus and supplied recordings for the live album Anthology. Thrice returned to performing at Skate and Surf in 2015, then resumed sustained touring after the release of To Be Everywhere Is to Be Nowhere. In 2023, the band played The Artist in the Ambulance in full on its 20th Anniversary Tour.
