Mike Thomas Band
with Clarence Tilton
"Mike Thomas' music has been best described as 'the grit of Americana storytelling with the undeniable groove of country radio' by The Boot. Known for his thoughtful lyrics and commanding voice, Thomas has received praise from Americana Highways, Saving Country Music, The Bluegrass Situation, Glide Magazine and more. His songwriting and sound often draw comparisons to Rodney Crowell, John Mellencamp, Tom Petty & Townes Van Zandt, artists whose writing is raw, real and rooted in place. That same spirit drives Thomas' work, especially on the breakout single, "Hell in High Water," which he wrote in response to the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. Released quickly and without traditional promotion, the song went viral, amassing more than 4 million streams in its first six months. He followed with "A Different Story," a gospel-tinged tribute to faith and redemption. The single, which was his first sent to country radio, debuted as the #4 most streamed single and climbed all the way to #84 on the Music Row Chart despite a very modest promotional budget. Thomas just released his latest single, "Stop the World," featuring the powerful vocals of Joanna Cotten (Eric Church band) and will be releasing a full-length album later this year."
