Music
Press
This young R&B/pop act is in good hands with material and presentation that are tight. On "Stagebreaker" he hits the big-beat synth-laden hook dead-on with vocals that swell and subside deftly. "Rock It Right" is a sexed-up workout. All the lyrics are genre-appropriate and groin-centric, though they may sometimes come off a bit more vacuous than expected. Tomas sings these songs well, however, and with the kind of spark that suggests he could make an impact on the heartthrob circuit. - MUSIC CONNECTION MAGAZINE - JUNE 1, 2008
