Artist Bio
Rob Thomas is one of modern music’s most compelling and commercially successful artists. For 20+ years, he has been the frontman and primary composer for Matchbox Twenty, leading the quintet to multiplatinum success over the course of four albums and a string of No. 1 hits that include “Push,” “3AM,” “Bent,” “If You’re Gone,” and “Unwell.” Thomas’ two solo albums, 2005’s platinum-certified No. 1 album …Something To Be and 2009’s cradlesong generated the hit singles “Lonely No More,” “This is How A Heart Breaks,” “Her Diamonds” and “Someday.” Rob’s solo recording, Chip Tooth Smile was released in 2019 and features hits “One Less Day (Dying Young)” and “I Love It.” Rob toured extensively behind Chip Tooth Smile and made all of the live performances available as instant audio downloads through VNUE’s Set.fm platform and as double CD sets available at merch stands immediately after each concert via VNUE’s DiscLive platform.
Thomas is known as an electrifying live performer, drawing fans of all ages to Matchbox Twenty’s concerts as well as to his solo shows around the globe. His 2016 critically acclaimed summer solo tour featured an innovative industry-first hologram karaoke backstage experience, where radio station winner’s and VIPs got a one-of-a-kind interactive “Hologram” duet.
On a yearly basis, Rob hosts a benefit for The Sidewalk Angels Foundation. These shows feature Rob performing a range of material from both Matchbox Twenty and his critically-acclaimed solo albums, as well as other material. Rob has described these shows as “singer-songwriter storyteller events; a shared moment with a small group of people.” The Sidewalk Angels benefit for 2021 will be no exception.
