Thomas & The Empty Orchestra is the music of Thomas Matthew Bower. Sheffield born he moved to the twin city of Bochum, Germany in late 2020.

Taking influence from the likes of Paul Simon, Nick Drake, Bon Iver, Iron & Wine, The Good Life, Fleet Foxes and the broader American emo scene he crafts folk songs rich with poetic imagery; tales of frailty, love, the grim English North and the transience of being. 

He is working on new music currently, with a view to releasing and touring in 2021 (global pandemic permitting).
