"Inventive and Romantic" - Time Out "Genius." - NME
"Thomas Truax won my heart and those of those around me... His songs sparkled, his banter cheered." - Everett True
There's
a fine line between the unique and the insane, and it's a line which
Thomas Truax (pronounced troo-aks) straddles with his chin held high and
'The
Hornicator ' firmly glued to his left ear. His collection of home made
instruments look as though plucked straight from the mind of Tim Burton
and
are combined with loop pedals, guitars and lashings of imagination to
create one of the most unusual and entertaining live shows you will ever
see.
In
the studio he builds exceptionally crafted, witty and often touching
albums. Splendid magazine calls him "one of the best
singer/songwriters in the
world that you've never heard of...an
exceptional talent, unique and resistant to comparison, yet accessible
even to casual listeners." Thomas, a
native of New York City, now
resides, at least temporarily, in London. Initial recordings for his
third album, were made in his studio, since dismantled,
in New York.
For the most of 2006 Truax lived a true nomadic troubadour-gypsy life
on the road in Europe - as a headliner, as well as support act for
tours with the Dresden Dolls and Duke Special amongst others.
