Here a song that will get in the flow! This song is a bit of New Orleans Style Honky Tonk, and a bit of the Rolling Stones mixed together in an intereting way. This song is the latest drop in a series of four new tunes by Phil Thomas, singer/songwriter.

Ride That Flow

Burn It Down

Inspired by the likes of Haggard and perhaps a little Cash as well, this is one of those, sad country songs.

Whiskey Soaked Memories

Sunrise out on the prairie brings a smile! Enjoy this one.

Mornings First Light

Here is a song about picking yourself up off the ground and getting it done.

That's The Way This Story Goes

Here is a song that I recorded a while back, but now it has been remixed and sounds better. Etched in Stone is about someone that was tempted by the bright lights, and to late, realizes there is more to life then glitz and glory.

Etched In Stone

Here is a song about my adopted home, Vinton, IA, AKA: The City of Lights. Aptly named, this is a lovely small rural community that is about equal distance from two metro-plex areas. Making it an ideal community to commute from. Large enough to be the county seat, and with just enough amenities to make it comfortable, but small enough to get to know your neighbors. 

The picture shown is an actual view of our downtown from the end of the bridge across the Cedar River.

Here is a track that I keep working on, and I am getting closer each time. This song is a haunting melody, and production that I hope you will find enjoyable." All That We Need" is a song of lost love and squandered opportunity. A cautionary tale for those lost souls in this world.

All That We Need (04_07_24)

Here is the latest offering. This has a nice bouncing bluegrass feel to it. Hope you enjoy, Time Changes Everything (but the way I love you).

Time Changes Everything (But The Way That I Love You)

True story of the flood of 2008 as experienced by the songwriter. They say, write what you know, and this is one lived experience that I would not wish on anyone. Enjoy, "Flood Water Blues".

Flood Water Blues 05 02 24

A song about towns becoming ghost towns, written just prior to the end!

This Town Is Fading Away 05 26 24

Nice tune about my first date with my wife, years ago. Still together, and loving life! Enjoy "Your Touch"

Your Touch 06_10_24

This one is a bit of mood setter and has a very nice smooth feel to both the lyrics, and sound of it. Enjoy Warm Rain Falling

What happens when a "Good Timing Woman" meets a "Ramblin' Man"? Well, in this song, he gets the "Dawg Gone Blues:" trying to figure out if he is hitting the road, or staying with this woman. No easy answers here, but a fun song none-the-less.

Dawg Gone Blues 06 23 24

This is a favorite old fiddle song, St. Anne's Reel. I am using a backing track from Strum Machine...thanks Keith Yoder for the suggestion! Enjoy on a lovely sunny Sunday morning. This is my Eastman MD915 Mandolin and having some fun playing some variations on a theme for this song.
