Thom Bresh is a multi-faceted entertainer. A singer, songwriter, recording artist, impressionist, and instrumentalist with an eventful career stemming from the tender age of three.

He has hosted his own successful weekly television variety show called "Nashville Swing," and was a regular on Dinah! and the Merv Griffin Show. Thom Bresh "the Producer" is in demand among the music industry's guitarists. Classical guitarist "Valerie Duchateau" made the long journey from France just to be produced by Bresh. He has also produced country guitar great, Jerry Reed. As a Producer, he received Grammy nominations for the Merle Travis album, "Travis Pickin," his instrumental CD, “Wires to the Wood” and an Academy Award nomination for "Over You," theme song from the movie Tender Mercies, in addition to producing six of his own CDs. His CD "Son of a Guitar Pickin' Man" brought him much acclaim from magazines such as "Guitar Player," to Britain's "Now Dig This." Thom‚s latest CD, "Guts & Steel", is a duet CD with the extraordinary fingerpicker, Buster B. Jones. It was released in Sept. 2001 on Solid Air Records. Music is not his only love. As a videographer, Bresh has shot, produced and edited projects that include Hank Thompson, Lyle Lovett, Brooks & Dunn, George Jones, Tanya Tucker and a long-form narrative-music-sitcom video starring Jerry Reed called "Another Puff".
