Hi, my name's Mike Thomas. I live in New York. Before that I lived in Detroit. Previous to that I lived in New York. I've been all over the country, been on TV a lot, appeared on a few nationally distributed albums and played with a bunch of bands. I'm a singer songwriter, guitarist, bassist...whatever you need. I've scored a few short films. I ramble incessantly. Odds are when you see me out right now it's in one of these formats:

Here's my official bio:
Mike Thomas is an immensely talented singer-songwriter. He is an evolving musical entity: the music is fresh and continually adds new dimensions. We like to call Mike’s sound new old-school organic soul. From a lifetime of exposure to divergent styles of music, and a bringing together of elements from jazz, country, folk, rhythm & blues and rock, the musically erudite sound of Mike Thomas is textured, multi-layered, and introspective. Over the past two years, Mike has been busy writing and playing all over New York, Michigan and Toronto. As well as playing solo and Mike Thomas Band shows, Mike is the vocalist/ guitarist for the harmony-rich, groove-laden Roundbale Conspiracy. Mike was the lead guitarist/background vocalist/bassist for the high energy horn rock band PBM, and was the bassist/ vocalist for the exuberant rock-trio juggernaut, Head. He also fronted his own band Sam Jones & the Jones Family. Mike is a powerful, soulful artist and performer. His extensive creative input on Roundbale’s CD, As Fresh As It Gets, honed his song writing style (reminiscent of Jeff Buckley but with unmistakable McCartney and Garcia influence). He has drawn raves and standing ovations from audiences across the U.S. and Canada.Get in touch with Mike:
