Quotes:
"Singer-songwriter Nicholas James Thomasma is a Grand Rapids native and a Michigander to the core. He even has the Great Lakes tattooed on his arm and professes real love for the region in earthy, country-imbued songs drenched in honesty and authenticity. Thomasma also happens to be a supremely talented singer" - John Sinkevics, Local Spins
"Thoughtful, heartfelt songs, drawn from his life, played in this intimate setting: I found it very appealing and affecting. This is a man who loves his avocation, his vocation, and his city.” -Chad Wedeven, Stolen Wallpaper
