BIO
Review

Thomas Started playing Drums at 8 years old with his Dad.

He played in church bands, school band, little theater groups, anywhere he could play.

At 14 he started his first band where he was the lead singer and drummer.

Soon after, he joined up with another local group and became the front man and lead singer.

The only original song they did, which he wrote was called "Won't You Come Out Tonight" and sounded very Cheap Trick. He was in a statewide contest in Oklahoma, and was voted one of the top 100 bands out of thousands in the contest at age 17.

He moved to Virginia at 21, becoming involved in a church organization. He recorded some songs in a studio in Chicago and was signed to a contract with the church and played for various congregations around the country. His songs "Can't Hide from Time", "Salvation Train" and "Somewhere" were featured on their international radio program.

His influences are the likes of John Fogerty, Paul McCartney, CCR, Led Zeppelin, The Police, Cheap Trick, Beatles, Jim Croce, REM, Johnny Cash and many others.

His band, 7 Days from Jordan, was played on local radio.

His goal is to perfect his abilities, have a good time doing what he loves, and do it for as many people as possible.

His package included an impressive cover letter, a page with several very positive reviews, a bio page, his CD, A King For A Day, and a business card.

 

 

 

 

Thomas Rose, a one man band, writes and records his own music. This music has been called a cross between Jim Croce and the Beatles, and everything from mesmerizing to god awful, depending on who you talk to. Whatever it may be, one thing is for sure; It's sincere and from the heart, and brings out emotion from those who listen.

Influenced by Creedence Clearwater Revival, REM, Police, Johnny Cash and many others, Thomas Rose's album, King for a Day offers an array of feel good songs. Simply, a great lineup of songs that flow from one to the next gracefully while the album seemingly fixates you as it unfolds. The big impact for me was during the middle where out of nowhere comes a manipulated voice saying: "Attention K Mart shoppers..." I don't know why i like that so much, but I do. A word of advice: listen to this CD If you can!
