​

Singer songwriter Niles Thomas is known for his smoky, velvet-like vocals – a critically acclaimed singer, songwriter and producer, an avant-garde composer creating a musical cocktail mix of crossover jazz.

​

"I'm interested in bringing jazz to the forefront of the mainstream market – that place where jazz crosses over into multi-genres and has no borders." explains Niles. "For those with a low tolerance for what  "jazz" is perceived to be, I've taken a genre-bending approach – eroding the boundaries between those genres, writing and performing original music in a vocabulary that combines elements of all."
