Biographie Jr. Thomas, Eraserhood Sound
Thomas McDowall aka Jr. Thomas
Born in Saint Cloud, Minnesota in 1981, Thomas’ musical DNA is steeped in classic Jamaican reggae, 60s/70s soul and funk, and singer-songwriter traditions. After early success with Minneapolis ska outfit The Dropsteppers, he relocated to Los Angeles to form Jr. Thomas & The Volcanos, releasing acclaimed albums including Rockstone on revivalist label Colemine Records. Now, with Jr. Thomas in the Eraserhood, he enters a bold new era – one that embraces the timeless energy of soul for a new generation.
