Earl Thomas

Pikesville Tennesse born, Earl Thomas is a California based singer, who records for Memphis Int'l Records. In 1994 Etta James recorded Thomas' song "I Sing The Blues" at the urging of famed producer Jerry Wexler who'd obtained a copy of Thomas self released 1991 debut disc "Blue...Not Blues". Thomas considers himself a song stylist, and despite being deeply influenced by the delta blues, and old Stax soul sounds, in interviews and bios Thomas eschews the label of soul or blues singer.
