About Me


Thomas Eby has quickly risen to be one of the most sought after percussionists in northern europe.
Focusing on cuban tradition, although possessing a wide range of styles, from brazilian and african tradition, to the modern sounds of pop, rock & dance-music.
Further contributing to his diversity, he is also the lead singer and recording percussionist of swedish timba/salsa band Calle Real. Thomas joined the band in the year 2000 upon returning from studies at the CNSEA and La Ena universities in Havanna, Cuba. Calle Real has recently released its debut album Con Fuerza worldwide, and among other praisings the band receieved a pre-round nomination to the prestigious Latin Grammy Awards 2006, the first european band ever to be granted such honour!
Furthermore, Thomas Eby is a constant musical contributor, both in the studio and on stage, to Rasmus Faber and SUMO, 2 of the most prolific artist in the house music scene. Touring with these artists has brought him to all the corners of the world, and his performances on these artists records have given him the respect and admiration of all the top names in this genre.
