A wide variety of techniques and genres find their way into his show and are reflected in the music he performs, arranges and writes. Ranging from the energetic and raucous mood of fingerstyle and ragtime styled solo works to the beautiful and intense flamenco and Latin rhythms to the sedate and lyrical music of such classical composers as Ravel, Pachelbel and Scarlatti, Thom can quickly take the audience through several centuries of enjoyable music.
In performances at theaters, festivals, restaurants and coffeehouses, Thom always manages to open the eyes and ears of enthusiastic crowds. Performances can be on a specific theme such as popular tunes, Spanish music, Renaissance or baroque - or the show can be a mixed bag or many styles. Listeners who expect to hear the standard "guy with a guitar" music are surprised to hear a Bach lute suite followed by a Scott Joplin rag, or a Brazilian samba by Jobim leading to a Spanish malaguena.
Thom's first CD, "Sometimes a Guitar is Just a Guitar" showcases the variety of music he performs and writes.
