Singer-Songwriter _(General Admission)_
THOMAS HINDS / DENNIS CARAVELLO / TIM MOORE
************************************
THOMAS HINDS
Thomas Hinds began his journey as a singer / songwriter in the early
1990's, inspired by the music of bands such as U2, The Black Crowes,
Def Leppard, and Counting Crows. These are just a few of the bands
that ignited his fire and fueled his musical dreams. With the hungry
heart of an artist, he began to cut his teeth on the local scene,
playing festivals such as Riverfest in his hometown of Farmington, New
Mexico, the Iron Horse bicycle race, and various other singer /
songwriter events in the Four Corners area. The culmination of these
performances was an opportunity to play the historic stage of the
Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee in 1995. After taking a
different fork on his creative path, he put his own desire and passion
for playing live on temporary hold while he raised his family. Never
one to give only half of his heart and focus, he knew the day would
come when he could once again pursue and hone his craft. That day
would come in 2007, when another life transition would lead him back
to his musical yearnings. Alight again with the fire in his belly, the
time had come once again to share his talents, this time with the
world. He would spend the next several years finding his voice again
on the local stages during open mic nights and a few local venues.
With encouragement from his family, fellow musicians, and friends, he
gained the ability to turn covers of his favorite songs into personal
interpretations. He would also find himself flowing seamlessly through
his own creations. He possesses the natural ability to use his music
as a means of speaking from and TO the heart. His own belief that
music is THE universal language is what makes the listener embrace the
bittersweet taste of love, loss, and loneliness right along side of
him. He can also take the listener to the place where words and melody
become as big a part of their lives as they are his. His performances
are filled with a level of emotion that portray a man longing to find
his place and striving to share himself through his music with each
and every member of his audience. Always able to relate to the music
he plays, he makes you feel like a welcome passenger on a lyrical and
melodic joyride. A mix of acoustic roots rock, alternative, and a
touch of country / blues / soul, he is able to bring a fresh feel to
old standards and bring people to a shared and common place of
harmony. It has been said that his unique voice has the familiar feel
of a fireplace warming a cold winter night. Rich and soulful and with
a longing to be heard as much as felt and understood. He is grateful
to have been given that voice and the opportunity to share his joys,
heartaches, his tragedies and victories with what he likes to call
"intimate strangers". He is a performer who believes he was "born with
an acoustic heart" and thanks each and every one of you for taking
this musical ride with him and entrusting him behind the wheel. And he
looks forward to sharing more musical adventures with you for many
years to come.
