BackStory with the American History Guys is a nationally syndicated, hour-long, weekly public radio show. We're based in Charlottesville, Virginia at the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities.

Each week we take a topic that people are talking about and explore its roots in American history. Through stories, interviews, and conversation with our listeners, we turn the things Americans take for granted inside out. And while we're at it, we have a lot of fun. Join us.

Kingston based troubadour, Thom Worth, is officially giving us a taste of his vibrant sound with the release of his first EP. Thom is already making big waves on the music scene, following a busy 2014 touring. Playing stages at Green Man, Victorious and The Isle of Wight Festival left him jumping at the chance to throw his first EP at the world.

Thom has an array of gifted musicians playing with him on the record (including Josh Phillips from Procol Harum), which has produced a rich and unique sound.

Described to have the vocal range of Marvin Gaye and the musicality of Harry Nilsson, Thom’s catchy music has taken on many different forms, but there is always an underlying tone of romance with colourful splashes of nostalgia running throughout well-crafted melodies and insightful lyrics; the music will catch your imagination. Thom’s playing is warm but emotionally charged and this coupled with his friendly stage presence makes for an ambient and dynamic performance, whether with his band or playing solo.
