Earl Thomas parlayed a unique voice and style into blues stardom at the beginning of the ‘90s. With his major label debut album, Blue...Not Blues, the two time Grammy® Award nominated and four time San Diego Music Award winner, brought a fresh alternative to traditional blues. Thirty years and 21 recordings later, he is recognized as one of the most influential and prolific blues singer-songwriters of his generation with an impact that has touched audiences across the globe. After an accidental entry into the music industry, Earl Thomas was known first as a songwriter, reaching the mainstream with I Sing The Blues, a hit for Etta James. Solomon Burke soon followed with What I’ve Got To Do and I Ain’t Ready. Then, Screaming Jay Hawkins did I Am The Cool and Sir Tom Jones covered Git Me Some. The list goes on. His songs have been featured on top television shows like ER and Grace & Frankie, and blockbuster movies In The Mix (starring Usher) and Rip Torn's 40 Shades Of Blue. His show stopping performance at Switzerland’s Montreux Jazz Festival in 1992, introduced the world to Earl Thomas—who would one day be known as The Blues Ambassador—and was a preview of an impressive 30 year music career. His most recent work Cold Ghetto shows that same unique voice and style in a skillfully crafted and artfully delivered contemporary blues set with lyrics by Earl Thomas and music by the acclaimed French and Swiss production team MOLIGAN for their Global Ancestral Sounds Music Project. The result is a spell-binding performance and a moving tribute to the genre by one of its greats, Earl Thomas, The Blues Ambassador.
