Anders Thomsen
Singer, Songwriter, Guitar Slinger

Anders Thomsen has deep roots. This midwestern boy grew up on the music that makes America. The twang of the Opry on a Saturday night, the rock ‘n’ roll on the stereos in the Chevys and Fords and the Blues and Soul spilling out of the nightclubs he snuck into. He heard all that and made it his own. 

He picked up the heartbreak and the joy of the blues and matched it with the lonesome, lovelorn hillbilly waltz and powered it all with those rock and roll V-8s.

He got an early start, playing in bars and nightclubs before he was old enough to drive, sometimes even with a note from his mother.  He sang, played guitar, played bass and even played the washtub. Anything to get him on stage to learn the craft. 

How many miles between then and now?

I’ve played all over the United States in every joint between here and there… and even some overseas. 

But mostly it’s been the bars and honky-tonks found in the good ol’ USA.

I have had the pleasure of playing alongside rock ‘n’ roll legends like Chuck Berry and Sylvain Sylvain, R&B and Blues legends like Martha Reeves and Willie Dixon and country legends like Billy Joe Shaver and Dale Watson. My own band The Ex-Husbands has had two albums in the top 10 on the Americana charts!

Don’t miss your chance to hear and see this renowned guitarist and singer, with his Trio,  performing all the classics of the American greats as well as his own classic self-penned material. A lifetime of music in one high-powered show, by one of the best!
