Jason Thomas with Claire Lynch

Jason ThomasJason Thomas has joined The Claire Lynch Band, assuming the position on mandolin, fiddle and vocals recently vacated by David Harvey. He is a multinational award winner, having taken the top place in the Canadian Open Mandolin Championship and the Florida State Championships for both mandolin and fiddle – twice.

He joins Jim Hurst on guitar and vocals, Missy Raines on bass and vocals and, of course, Claire Lynch on guitar and lead vocals.
