Growing up in the rich musical crossroads of East Tennessee, Mike Thomas began performing at an early age in some of the region's most well-known clubs. During the late '90s and early 2000s, he was a regular fixture on Knoxville, TN’s flourishing music scene. Thomas relocated to Nashville in 2004 intent on pursuing a songwriting career. Quickly realizing that his songwriting style and  process were not a fit on Music Row, Thomas took a decade-long hiatus from writing and performing, started a family and pursued a career in another industry...  Never truly losing the itch to write and perform, Thomas formed his band in 2017 at the urging of his long-time friend and current band member, Donald T. Bright. The band quickly began building a following by making regular appearances at legendary venues such as Kimbro’s Pickin’ Parlor, Douglas Corner Café, B.B. Kings and the Mercy Lounge among others. Shortly thereafter, Thomas met musician/producer, Tres Sasser, who was instrumental in convincing Thomas to head into the studio to begin work on an album. Drawing from a wide array of influences, MT's music has been best described as “eclectic country with a vintage vibe.” What strikes many people about Thomas first is his voice. It is a sometimes raw, sometimes growling, and sometimes tender thing, but it is always brutally honest and utterly sincere. It matches his careful songwriting perfectly. Thomas is currently signed to Electric 3 Records and is working on two upcoming releases for 2022 -  Three Reasons Deluxe Edition is set for release in March 2022 and will be followed by the LP, "Diamonds" in the fall.
