St. Thomas - R.I.P.

"St. Thomas is 25 years old. He was born in Oslo. His heart gets warm if you appreciate his music. Please take care of him.” That’s what you can read on the inside sleeve of I’m Coming Home, St. Thomas’s second album (2001).

Norwegian singer/songwriter Thomas Hansen (aka St. Thomas) died last Sunday at the age of 31. Read more here: Thomas Hansen, 1976 - 2007

Two songs from I’m Coming Home (2001) via Misra Records, his best record - for me - very much inspired by indie artists like Elliott Smith, Bill Callahan, Will Oldham:
St Thomas - Cornerman .MP3
St Thomas - Take A Dance With Me .MP3
