"Sun Come Undone" was released on March 13, 2007 on Birdnote Records.
Guitarist Casey Harvey had been pestering Rachel Tracy about forming a band for years. She finally relented in the summer of 2005, agreeing to play bass, and they recruited vocalist/guitarist Anna Conner during a pickup baseball game and drummer Matt Davis shortly thereafter. Having cut their teeth in the formative Baltimore all-ages indie scene of the mid-nineties, they were itching to make meaningful music again. Several practice sessions in, they realized there was real chemistry and Thrushes was born.
Current Members

Thrushes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m finding you
You’re not that hard to figure out
You’re losing your doubts
I’m finding you out
I’m finding you
I’m waiting on you
And patience isn’t my strongest suit
I’ve nothing else do so
I’m waiting on you
In the song "Tattoo" by Thrushes, the lyrics suggest that the singer has recently come to some realizations about another person. They claim to have "found them out" and that they're "not that hard to figure out." This implies a sense of triumph on the part of the singer, as if they have solved a puzzle or uncovered a secret. However, it's unclear what specifically they've discovered about the other person. The line "you're losing your doubts" suggests perhaps that the other person has been holding back or unsure of themselves in some way, but now they are becoming more confident or clear.
The next verse is more introspective. The singer admits that they are waiting on the other person, but "patience isn't [their] strongest suit." This implies that the singer may be motivated by a desire to see some kind of resolution or progress in their relationship with the other person. However, they also suggest that they have "nothing else to do," which could imply that the waiting is borne out of boredom or a lack of other options. Overall, the lyrics are somewhat cryptic and it's difficult to say exactly what kind of relationship or situation the song is describing. However, it's clear that the singer is feeling a mix of emotions and that they are invested in their relationship with the other person, whatever it may be.
