About Chris Thomas:

Chris Thomas is a dynamic and versatile vocalist, described as one of the most exciting entertainers in the Southeastern United States. Drawing inspiration from the classic performers of years gone by—Sinatra, Dean Martin—and modern greats like Gregory Porter, Michael Bublé, and Kurt Elling, Chris brings a fresh, contemporary energy to timeless music.

Music has always been part of Chris’s life. After temporarily losing his hearing at age five due to a viral infection, he developed a deep appreciation for sound—especially the joy of hearing music again. With partial hearing restored (50% in his left ear, 70% in his right), his performances reflect that gratitude and passion, making every note count.

With a career spanning more than 15 years, Chris has become a popular regional entertainer, performing for major venues and clients including the Florida Theatre, Jacksonville Jaguars, iHeartRadio, Times-Union Center for the Arts, Muscular Dystrophy Association, American Heart Association, Ronald McDonald House, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Miami Cultural Center for the Arts, and the Jacksonville Symphony.

In 2017, Chris toured London to promote his CD It’s Only the Beginning, selling out every show—including a packed night at the legendary Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club.

Whether you’re a die-hard Rat Pack fan or just love great music and unforgettable performances, Chris Thomas is a must-see.
