"THOMAS WYNN AND THE BELIEVERS, from Orlando, is one of the most exciting new bands in Florida . . . astounded, as was nearly everyone . . . Folks stood with their jaws dropped. Several of my friends just shook their heads and said "damn". Their My Space link has strong tracks, but absolutely pales in comparison to their live sound. Thomas' voice is the key, he's a mix of Ronnie Van Zandt & Otis Redding -southern soul, blues & backed by a tight band that plays blistering rock. I can't remember the last time I was this impressed by a band I knew nothing about ahead of time. But don't pigeon hole them as an alt-country band, there was as much soul & blues in their sound as twang. Ultra professional, no stammering or lags between songs.'”
Bev Cranshaw/Randy Wynne, WMNF 88.5 fm, Tampa

"This band is better every time I see them. On the outdoor stage, it was apparent that Thomas Wynn is plenty comfortable with being a demonstrative frontman, accentuating the band's hard-charging hybrid of Southern rock and gospel with a magnetic stage presence. Musically, the band also makes the most of the triple-threat vocal combination of Wynn, his sister Olivia and guitarist Justin Beckler in moments such as that incendiary "Shot of Love" chorus. Thom Damon, a new addition on drums, is a powerhouse also adept at pulling back for the more country-flavored numbers. Truthfully, the band doesn't pull back much."

"Orlando, Florida already knows the best kept secret in Southern music. As for the rest of the world, if this new CD (The Reason) is an indicator, they will all know soon enough. Thomas Wynn & The Believers have been blowing away audiences all around with a unique sound that is as original as it is radio ready." www.Swampland.com

Gibson sponsored and dual winners of BEST OF 2009 Orlando Weekly Readers' Poll, as both BEST ROCK BAND and BEST COUNTRY BAND, THOMAS WYNN & THE BELIEVERS personifies rugged, yet uplifting Americana rock, country, southern soul & gospel. On lead vocals and guitar, Wynn channels big guns Neil Young, Tom Petty, Waylon Jennings, Ronnie Van Zandt & Otis Redding; combined with sister Olivia's soulful, haunting harmonies (which blend as only siblings can) the vocals soar to celestial heights; add to that a tight, fiery band that plays hard-charging blistering rock, the power of the performance is undeniable.

Brought up in a musical environment with father Tom Wynn, original drummer of legendary 70's Capricorn Studios' band Cowboy, the experience was not wasted on the Wynns, and their onstage dynamics show that. Thomas' passionate songwriting and emotional delivery has propelled the band to develop a fan-base loyalty wherever and whenever they play.

". . . outstanding Orlando alt-country outfit alternates between quiet folk and barn-burning rockers such as the kiss-off "You Can't Hurt Me" which throws some blazing Crazy Horse grunge into the mix. At the core of the band's success is Wynn's gold-dust voice." Wade Tatangelo/ www.tampa.creativeloafing.com

"The ever-astounding Floridian powerhouse of soulful, gutsy, talented southern rock, the gritty power of Thomas' songwriting is matched only by the authenticity of Olivia's tones and the powerful presence of the band. it ain't no surprise they keep risin' to the top. experiencing them will lift your spirit and your soul!" Ben Phillipps, fan

* * *

". . . soulful, gritty tunes, some as sweet as honeysuckle and others ferociously jagged. Thomas Wynn & The Believers were reminiscent of Levon Helm, Neil Young and the Allman Brothers, but they still boldly radiated a sound and southern charm all their own." Kalene McCort/Metromix Orlando

   About Thomas Wynn & the Believers
Photobucket
" . . . allow me to introduce you to a local talent that actually deserves the attention they’ve been getting: Thomas Wynn & the Believers. Their heady brew of rock, country, gospel and Southern soul is one of the most thoroughly indigenous sounds coming out of Florida . . . and hell if that song “Hold On” don’t scratch the spot just right."

ORLANDO WEEKLY - Bao Le-Huu

"For once, you have a Florida band that is Florida. They look Florida, they sound Florida - with a touch of Molly Hatchett sprinkled on The Band, Neil Young, and The Black Crowes. Not hipster . . . transplant Florida, but Florida Florida. The sum of the parts is one of the strongest live shows in the state. The music is stately and sweeping, with powerful melodies and hooks, grinding jams with soaring guitars and tight drum work, and a frontman that can carry “the weight.”

John Prinzo - www.ReaxMusic.com

"I heard Thomas Wynn and the Believers the other night at Bamboo that put me in the mind of Delaney and Bonnie's style. They did a lot of truly excellent originals as well as a couple covers by the Band like "The Weight" and "Evangeline" both of which was sung mightily and raised the hair on my neck. Papers seem to think they are Rock, but I think they are just real good and somehow got tuned into that Delaney, Bonnie, Leon/Shelter People era and are following the path where it left off." tweedblues.net
