Michael David Thomas has been described as a cross between wordsmiths Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen, with an honest vocal style reminiscent of 60’s / 70’s folk singer songwriters like Paul Simon and James Taylor.
He belongs to a rare class of songwriters whose songs can simultaneously reach the head and the heart, make you laugh and cry, and reference the old while still providing a completely unique perspective.
Giving up his former life as a lawyer Michael changed his name, hit the road with an acoustic guitar and set out on a pilgrimage. His travels took him on an extensive tour playing all around Australia and the US.
With Breaking Hart Benton, Michael made three records, including an album produced by acclaimed producer Mark Moffatt (Crowded House, the Saints, Yothu Yindi, Keith Urban).
In 2015, Michael signed with Airlock Records’ Ian Haug (Powderfinger), becoming the label’s third singing. Produced by Haug, the EP contains a tantalising mix of well crafted melodic and up tempo songs and sparser lyrical numbers. Together Haug and Michael David Thomas brought these ‘folk’ songs to life and captured a fresh yet authentic sound.
