Anthony Thomas

Folk // Portlaoise, Laois

Anthony Thomas is a piano based singer songwriter. As he plays, he lures the listener in with a jazz style reminiscent of the French Quarter of New Orleans on Angels, Gods & Kings. This sets the scene showing how human beings triumph...even against the odds. With gentle piano swirls, he continues and is unafraid to tackle our species, its darker as well as lighter side. We have murder, rape, death but also birth, friendship & the taste of blackberries in the Summer. Anthony Thomas takes dramatic turns with lyrics often going to places you just do not expect. It keeps his playing fresh.

A piano based exploration harmonizing the human search through relationship, humour and the experience of Beauty. Anthony Thomas weaves between the Present & the Eternal, the Mind & the Spirit while staying firmly rooted in the Body.
