With his single "E.R." burning up the charts even before the album JOE THOMAS, NEW MAN hit the shelves, it's clear that soul singer Joe Thomas knows a thing or two about how to make the R&B formula work. Smooth, suave, and dripping with loverman charm, Thomas draws from both vintage R&B influences like Marvin Gaye and Donny Hathaway, as well as au courant urban contemporary sounds. From the romantic plea of "Why Just Be Friends" to the tear-jerking ballad "Sorry," Thomas takes all the classic elements of the male R&B singer and brings them to life in the 21st century.
