Among his countless hits are solo classics like "Lonely No More," "This Is How A Heart Breaks," and "Streetcorner Symphony," Matchbox Twenty favorites including "Push," "3AM," "If You're Gone," and "Bent," and of course "Smooth," his 3x RIAA platinum certified worldwide hit collaboration with Santana. Thomas earned three GRAMMY Awards for his role as co-writer and vocalist on "Smooth," which topped Billboard's "Hot 100" for an astounding 12 consecutive weeks and spent 58 total weeks on the chart, the #1 song in Billboard's "Top Hot 100 Rock Songs" chart history and #2 "Hot 100" song of all time.

In 2004, Thomas was the first artist to be honored with the Songwriters Hall of Fame's prestigious "Hal David Starlight Award," created to recognize a composer in the early years of his or her career that has already made a lasting impact. He has won numerous BMI and ASCAP Awards, and twice earned the "Songwriter of the Year" crown from both Billboard and BMI. Overall, Thomas has contributed to sales of more than 80 million records.

Thomas made his solo debut with 2005's platinum certified "...SOMETHING TO BE" and immediately made history as the first album by a male artist from a rock or pop group to ever debut at #1 on the Billboard 200. Thomas' most recent solo album, 2009's "CRADLESONG," marked still another milestone, generating two #1 singles in "Her Diamonds" and "Someday." Billboard chart history was made once again, with Thomas now tied with Pink for the most #1 Adult Top 40 hits by a solo artist as well as the only male solo artist to score multiple chart-toppers at the format.

In 2012, Matchbox Twenty returned with their first all-new album in a decade, "NORTH." Fueled by the hit singles, "She's So Mean," "Overjoyed," and "Our Song," "NORTH" proved a landmark for the band, their first ever #1 debut and Billboard 200 chart-topper.

A charismatic, engaging, and indefatigable live performer, Thomas has spent much of the past two decades on the road, fronting massive world treks with Matchbox Twenty and on his own as well as a series of intimate acoustic tours.
