The Thomas James Band delivers a high-energy blend of desert rock, rockabilly swagger, and rock-country soul—their songs are the soundtrack from the highways of life in the Arizona sun.

Front and center, Thomas James on guitars and vocals, a veteran of the rock scene and a gifted songwriter whose work blends storytelling with great guitar work. Over the years, Thomas has powered bands such as Time, Digger, and The Crush, each one adding new layers to his writing, style, and stage presence. His songs have swagger and grit with melodies that stick in your mind long after the last chord rings.

Alongside him is Tommy D (Tom De Poy) on rhythm and lead guitar, whose roots trace back to playing as a kid in Niles, Michigan with future Metallica bassist Jason Newsted. Over the years, Tommy D has performed with a diverse roster of bands including Diamond, The Smile, Fortress, Sticky Fingers, Z, and others—each project sharpening his ability to fuel his melodic guitar hooks.

On drums is Jeremy Rogers, a versatile player whose style blends rock power with jazz finesse. Formerly with Sans Moi, Jeremy has performed with an impressive list of artists including Rich Brown, Barton Godfrey, Jimmie George, Thano Sahnas, and Demitri Sahnas, bringing a seasoned, dynamic energy to every performance.

Rounding out the lineup is Chris Marchant, an LA-based Berklee graduate who began his musical journey in junior high with a blues band called Boom Bah. He went on to perform with jazz bands, orchestras, and the progressive rock group, Dreams and Doorways, who opened for George Clinton on more than one occasion.  Chris has played with a wide variety of artists, led his own projects, and recently toured with Good Boy Daisy. Chris is a songwriter, singer, and producer, and his versatility on keys, sax, and bass adds depth, groove, and unexpected textures to the band’s sound.

In 2025, The Thomas James Band released their EP Let’s Ride—a collection of song that captures the spirit of the band.

Their live shows are highly engaging, fueled with foot-stomping music and melodies for an energetic, fun-filled experience!
