Description

Chris Thomas is a guitarist, piano player, and singer who has been performing all over the eastern seaboard for almost 20 years with bands like The Gary US Bonds Band, DogVoices, Eleven Eleven, Bums in the Park, New Power Soul, and the Swingin' Johnsons. Now available as either a solo performer or with a full band, I perform weekly all over NY and NJ in the summer, and in South Florida and the Florida Keys in the winter. I will travel anywhere in the world however. I recently performed at Atlantis in the Bahamas.
Repertoire includes over 500 songs, from classic artists like The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, Jimmy Buffett, and The Eagles to modern-day favorites like Dave Matthews, Pearl Jam, and Jack Johnson. Clients can help create a custom-made song list to be played at your function. For more information visit his MySpace, Facebook page or website.

Feedback

  • I was very pleased with Chris' performance at our Welcome Party for our son's wedding. He was extremely professional in all the interactions I had with him. He arrived on time, dressed appropriately, played great music, and played just as long as we asked him to. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a great performer for any type of event. -- Margo F, Islamorada, FL, 4/29/2011
  • My new husband and I could not have asked for more for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Chris was great. He showed up early to make sure everything was set up and working properly. He played all the songs we asked him to play, and had a great song list to choose from. He's got an awesome singing voice. He even sang through the rain shower outside during the cocktail hour while we took cover under the tent. He's extremely talented, professional, and we would strongly recommend him for anyone needing live musical entertainment for a wedding or party. He did an excellent job and has a great sound. -- Betsy S, Islamorada, FL, 4/28/2012
