The Thrills

Voted the “Number One band on Long Island” by Good Times Magazine in 1978.

Lead vocalist Tony Monaco and guitarist Dave Fullerton, longtime collaborators from their Thrills days, bring decades of touring and recording experience. Bassist Bill Gilbert, remembered for his signature style and presence, helped shape the band’s original sound alongside drummer Rob Owens. Behind the scenes, manager Tom Ingegno and producer Mike Frenchik—who worked with artists like Lionel Richie and Foo Fighters—lend their industry expertise. Drummer Linda Mackley adds dynamic rhythm and versatility, completing a lineup dedicated to keeping the spirit of Thrills alive.
