Guy Thomas Guy Thomas is a songwriter, composer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist musician who has recorded with and written for some of the biggest names in popular music. Guy began his musical studies at age three and was giving public recitals at age seven. A sensation in his native Ohio, at the age of 16, Guy was sought out and signed by RCA executives in New York
as a solo artist. Unprepared for the demands of a solo
record deal and drawn to the west coast rock scene,
Guy left his solo endeavors to join a band; performing
and touring with a wide array of famous recording artists
{writing, singing and playing lead-guitar, bass and
keyboards.}
In the eighties, Guy signed as a staff songwriter and
had his songs recorded by several top artists who included
Carly Simon, Kenny Rogers, Smokey Robinson and Kenny
Loggins.
In 1984, when Kenny Loggins reached new heights in
his solo career with songs like “Footloose,”
“I’m Alright” and other soundtrack
hits, he assembled a new band for touring which included
Guy as lead guitarist, singer and co-songwriter.
When Loggin’s wasn’t touring, Guy was performing
with other pop/rock artists including Amy Grant, Bruce
Hornsby, Michael McDonald, The Rembrandts, and Jackson
Browne.
Since signing as a writer with Cherry Lane Music Publishing
Co. in 1996, Guy gave up touring and has worked almost
exclusively on various television and film projects.
Guy’s library of music continues to be heard in
NBC’s “B. Smith With Style,” and “Famous
Homes and Hideaways,” “That’s So Raven”,“Queer Eye For the Straight Guy” as well as NBC
Sports.
For the past decade, Guy has also scored literally hundreds of prime-time television cable shows for Discovery Channel, A&E, Biography and History Channel as well as all the original trailer music for Movietrickets.com.
Recently Guy partnered up with a co-writer to create an entire new catalogue of music for Telepictures, Inc., the producers of NBC's "Extra" and "TMZ.com," for their 2009 and 2010 daily episodes.
Guy's expertise in current music trends has been well recognized in the recording and the academic community where he is an adjunct professor of modern music at UCLA.
