The Thom Palmer Band

About Me

Thom has now joined the James Supra Blues Band . More info to come.
MySpace LayoutsThe Thom Palmer Band is always looking to fill your soul with all the elements of great blues music. Mixing it up with New Orleans Jazz, Memphis Soul, a bevy of Funk, and a few parts Rock n’ Roll are just a few of the ingredients that make this band one of the Lehigh Valley's most unique experiences.
With a searing guitar, growling vocals, soulful horns, and a kickin’ rhythm section, Thom Palmer and his band have shared the stage with such greats as Tommy Castro, Sue Foley, Michael Burkes, Rhett Tyler, Scarlet Moore, Murali Coryell, Leah Gilmore, Slam Allen and Roxy Perry, to name but a few. The list goes on.
