In Their Thousands formed in May 2011 in Co. Donegal. Brothers Aidan and Declan Mc Clafferty, and their cousin Ruairí Friel rented a house in the village of Ramelton and started writing, recording and rehearsing original material. Over the course of the year longtime friend Liam Kelly joined the band and the project became In Their Thousands.

The writing and recording session from last summer grew into the material on the bands debut EP. The EP was released to acclaim at the Earagail Arts Awakening festival on February 3rd 2012 in the dramatic settings of Rathmullen house. The EP is the first of a quartet of four track EP's to be released by the band as an ongoing project, the second of which being released on September 8th 2012 in a pop-up venue made from a shed in rural Co. Donegal.

The bands sound is diverse - With the songs coming from all band members their live set changes from stunning vocal harmony laced acoustic acapella folk to edgy electric alternative rock in a seamless progressive crescendo.

Their latest release was recorded with Dublin based producer Dave "Skippy" Christophers over two separate weeks in 2013, this is the third EP in the series of four EPs project the band started with in 2012.

Called "Between the Waters", and featuring artwork designed by the band alongside long-time collaborator Annette Gallagher, the songs explore the cruelness and melancholy of the sea, loss, finds, how we relate to power in our society and harvests.

The record has seven tracks and includes the single version of Tear It All Apart which reached number 23 in the Irish alternative iTunes charts on it's release two weeks ago.
