Roy has musical talent that is just unbeatable. A definately talented musician that knows all aspects of the field. From writing originals that everyone loves, an artist that can play any instrument and a total crowd pleaser. That is how he became Sofa Kings' front man and "Golden Boy". We just call him GB for short.

Tracy Kash Thomas
Description: If Stevie Wonder, Dave Matthews, and Dianne Reeves had a love child, were that biologically possible among three people, this would be Tracy Kash Thomas. Uh-huh, this young woman is THAT dynamic and versatile. Thomas released her second CD, There and Back Again in July 2006. This collection of original tunes represents the variety of genres in which Thomas has shown she can comfortably and brilliantly immerse herself, including swing, Latin jazz, R&B/smooth jazz, and roots rock. Thomas began her musical life as a classical musician. Armed with a Bachelor’s degree from University of North Texas – a veritable jazz factory producing musicians such as Lou Marini and Stefan Karlsson - and a Master's degree from the venerable Boston Conservatory, Tracy is an accomplished flutist. Add her impeccable songwriting, arranging and production talents to the mix and it is easy to see why she is an established musician’s musician in her native Detroit, where she currently lives, as well as in her previous hometown, New York City. Her unique brand of jazz and jazz-influenced rock/pop, thrills live audiences as well as her growing radio following.

Tracy was nominated in the Outstanding Jazz Vocalist category for the Detroit Music Awards in 2007, 2006, and 2004, and in 2007, "There and Back Again" was also nominated for Outstanding Jazz Album.
