About

“Glenn is an absolutely fantastic songwriter, totally tapped into the deepest part of himself and so gorgeously articulate in expressing his feelings.” - Layng Martine Jr, Nashville Songwriting Hall of Fame member

Glenn Thomas writes songs that cut straight to his truths. By putting his life and the human condition under the microscope, Glenn’s songs articulately observe the big questions with small details. Raised in a small New England town, Glenn writes with careful attention to his understanding of himself and the seasonality of life.

Glenn’s songs have been praised by press and songwriting veterans alike and have led him to perform across the country with national acts such as Edie Brickell, Langhorne Slim, The Barr Brothers, Blitzen Trapper, Joe Pug, The Ballroom Thieves, Eve6, Watsky, Rubblebucket, and many others. With the alternative-rock outfit he fronts, Wild Sun, his music has been featured in Rolling Stone, Billboard, Spin, and Entertainment Weekly, as well as a cover of Elliott Smith’s “Easy Way Out” on the nationally acclaimed “Say Yes! A Tribute to Elliott Smith” album featuring J. Mascis, Julien Baker, and Amanda Palmer.

He is currently living in Nashville and working on his followup album to his debut LP Reassure Me There’s a Window, released in 2020 via Palace Flophouse Records to praise from Billboard, Bluegrass Situation, PopMatters, and more. His subsequent singles have landed on several Spotify editorial playlists and SiriusXM.

The latest single, “Peel of Clementine,” a quirky and sentimental account of small recurring moments, was released in September 2024.

“What makes Thomas' songs so compelling is that nothing is wasted. Each lyric is turned again and again, shaped to perfection with such thoughtful care.” - Analogue Music

"When Glenn sings, he feels it—the music, the song, the lyrics, the truth. You can tell that he sings of a deep and personal truth. Behind the jokes is someone who was meant to play music." - 95.5 WBRU
