Thad Requet is an independent singer/songwriter from Northeast Missouri. The song is titled "Down By The River" and is on the new album 'Dark Corners Of My Mind' featuring 12 new original songs. "Down By The River" can be found on Thad's Reverbnation page.

Most of my songwriting years have been for my own personal edification. But more than that. Music is a very powerful fragrance and for some it can become an obsession. This was for true me. In the early days I wrote a song titled Pioneer. An artist of years past, Terry Williams of the First Edition, heard my song and wanted to see a live performance of my trio. So, the three of us drove down to Miami and played for Terry, Kenny Rogers and his band in a hotel room near their Venue. Shortly after that I found myself playing in a country rock band with Kenny’s nephew Danny Rogers.

Adam’s Nest, consists of Razvan Nicolae Rusu (vox & guitar), Vlad Alui Gheorghe (guitar & vox), Gabriel Belcescu (bass), Andrei Hancu (drums). Adam’s Nest appeared in 2017 in Iași, first as an acoustic-experimental project with no high hopes. In April 2018, after their debut with the eponymous EP, the band started growing, recruiting new members, putting on their new shoes and was ready to make the giant leap to the main stage. 

I was one of the founding members of the Pittsburgh-based band Sandoz which was signed to the New York label Relix Records and produced three albums. I have just released an unsigned solo album, Out from Nowhere. The ten original songs run the gamut from folk rock to country swing and spoken word jazz and feature some of the city’s finest musicians on sax, flute, violin, pedal steel, piano, and guitar.

I have a friend (Billy Lonas, email: billyclonas@yahoo.com) who doesn’t like to “toot his own horn” but he is a really good “old school” country & western song writer. Sooooo, I am tooting his horn for him, lol. This song, which I helped him record in a good studio with professional musicians, is powerful, and especially timely and meaningful, with the current social/political clime in our country.

What does the name ‘No Serial Killer’ signify? 

It refers to the fact that as a 46 year old, I am happy to have not turned into a serial killer. By 2019 standards, I’m doing pretty well. If any of our listeners is a serial killer, you’re not welcome to be one of our fans. We only want ‘no serial killers’ to like ‘No Serial Killer’. Killing people due to one’s own inadequacies we find deeply offensive. Don’t hurt others is the message.
