Company of Thieves are the free download on iTunes this week

CompanyOfThieves
Chicago indie rock darlings Company of Thieves are getting along very nicely these days. They are getting ready to head out on a cross country tour with the band Thriving Ivory, and have re-released their stellar album Ordinary Riches with new artwork, packaging, and added unreleased tracks.

The cherry on top is the fact that Company of Thieves is one of the free discovery downloads this week on the iTunes store. Which means if you haven't had the time to check out this Chicago act, you can head over to iTunes and download the song "Oscar Wilde" for free, and then pick up the full album for the special price of just $5.99.

"The stuff I like sounds like life or death," she reasons. And this coming from a woman with a picture of Jimi Hendrix taped to her cello case like he's a saint.
