The Fabulous Caprettos is an Australian supergroup consisting of Dave Gleeson, Jack Jones, Russell Morris and Rai Thistlethwayte. The band formed in 2020, when they began rehearsing and recording. Gleeson replaced original member Daryl Braithwaite in mid-2023.
The band toured in 2021 and again in 2023. A further tour is planned for early 2024.

Rai Thistlethwayte was the lead singer and primary songwriter of Thirsty Merc. He is a solo performer, session musician and teacher.




Origin of the name


The band members jokingly referred to themselves as the "greatest of all time" (goat). Not wanting to appear egotistical, they chose the Italian word for goat: capretto. Hence, The Fabulous Caprettos.
