Coming up from the shadows is Thomas, an artist who is a self-determined and self-taught pop prodigy. Rising out of the feeling of being stuck in a dark place that you can’t seem to climb out of, is where his music was birthed. Seven weeks prior to the completion of his audio engineering degree, Thomas was ready, he had developed the personal and creative skills to realise his album. Writing, performing, recording, mixing and mastering 8 honest songs informed by every good and bad choice made since his lowest point in that commerce lecture.
This result of hard work and dark times produced his debut album ‘Limerence’. Which tracks his journey that started out as him being a frustrated, unmusical commerce student. His desire to break free was catalysed by a set of DJ decks, his curiosity in spinning others tracks cracked open into teaching himself music theory and production on Youtube, dropping out of the commerce degree and enrolling into an Audio Engineering degree.

“‘Limerence’ is an easy listening pop masterpiece. The debut album by Thomas works as a great listen for any mood. Tracks like “good times” and “151” standing out as excellent foundation, creating excitement for what is to come from Thomas.” states Lewis Main from The Spotlight Podcast.
The album is an explosion of unfiltered emotions and poppy beats that instantly get you hooked. With beautiful and serene piano chords, uptempo drum beats, and melodic riffs that makes everything feel so tranquil and lovely. His voice complements the music he is putting forward, with amazingly pitch-perfect high notes that send shivers down your spine, and words flowing effortlessly from his tongue, creating a vibe that is incredible.
His music moves you, with the softness and atmospheric vibes. You fall in love with every song line by line, layer upon layer. It is truly incredible when you find an artist who’s craft can create your own tranquil escape in the comfort of your own room.
Thomas may be just beginning his foundations as an artist, but it won’t be long before it’ll progress and flourish into something more. Thomas will take your heart and your breath away.
