About Me

Since moving to Nashville Bo Thomas has toured as a guitarist and background vocalist for platinum selling country music artist Kevin Sharp as well as other up and coming country and pop artists. For two years he honed his songwriting craft further as a staff songwriter for Taste Auction Music. This publishing company is the home for numerous hits such as "I Love The Way You Love Me," "How Do You Like Me Now," and "Some Days You Gotta Dance." Since January 2009 Bo has spent several months back in NC playing small shows here and there and relaxing at the beach, but is now back in Nashville searching for a new home for his music.
