Re-Emerged...

"CG has recently re-emerged as a powerful jazz talent."

The young talent that Backwater recruited to open the shows for CG and the band, covered everyone from Bonnie Rait to John Hammond to Puablo Cruz to Wet Willie.

"THE GUY IS DYNAMIC!!!" CG feels the music and his natural energy and performance style takes you places when he plays that piano. CG is a natural. Real piano, Rhodes, saxophone, upright bass, makes CG Jazz truly an experience." 'Magic Man' Rob Weems, Evaluation of Jazz Artists, April 2010

"I want to thank all of the people involved in motivating my return to performance. And thanks for the emails. I really love this music too."
CG Thomason
