Calgary indie ensemble Thomas Thomas is the result of the creative collision of the sincere singer-songwriter Shannon Thomas and the curious indie-rocker Thomas Englund (Bell Tower, Beta Boys). Combining their names and adding a sparkly rock ensemble, the band makes swooning and nostalgic songs worthy of the swankiest high school prom.
Known for their hand-crafted aesthetic, heavily decorated live shows, and love of the colour yellow, Thomas Thomas has landed a YYC Music Award nomination and a first place win at the Ship & Anchor songwriting contest. Their tunes have seen chart positions on CJSW, CKUA, spins on X92.9, and a dedicated local following. The band has performed with Japanese Breakfast, Shannon & The Clams, and Vundabar. They have graced the stages of Breakout West, Canadian Music Week, Sled Island, Folk On The Rocks, Winterruption YEG, BIG Winter Classic (with headliner billing) and the group recently made their international debut at FOCUS Wales this past May. The dreamy indie idiosyncrasies on their debut self-titled EP (2019) has drawn comparisons to BornRuffians, Wallows, and Camera Obscura.
Their last release, the nostalgic ‘Right Place Wrong Time,’ was recently featured on a 2023 Starbucks summer ad campaign.
