The Grand and Amazing Pianist
THOMAS WALTERS
The Beginning

As a young man from a small town in Lebanon Missouri, Thomas never dreamt of being a showman pianist until one day in August 2018, Thomas' grandmother gifted him a full-sized Casio keyboard. Thomas went to the piano and with one finger played "When The Saints Go Marching In". Thomas immediately fell in love with the piano and discovered the gift God had given him!
In May of 2019, 6 months after Thomas first sat down at a piano, he played for the first time on stage at his home church in Lebanon, MO. Which started his love for showmanship and performing!
The First Performance

Thomas' styling of his playing all started by this inspiration, Dino Kartsonakis! As soon as Thomas discovered Dino, he fell in love with his styling. He carefully watched and studied Dino's showmanship and styling to add to his own. Thomas has been remarked many times as "Dino, Dino Jr., etc." by different people. In November 2019, Thomas got to meet Dino in person and give him a gift after his Christmas show. He has also had coffee with Dino at his Cafe before where Dino interviewed Thomas on FaceBook Live!

The Performing Continues.....
Since His first performance in 2019, Thomas has had the opportunity to play at many wonderful places. Getting the Jeff Stice Memorial Scholarship in 2022 to go to a week-long music school "Charles Novell School Of Music". Thomas' favorite thing to do is perform and entertain people. Thomas says,
"I love what I do, and who I get to it for! I do it for the glory of Jesus, being able to play for Him even without an audience is worth it, I love performing, through entertaining people I bring in young peoples interest that may not know Christ personally, and at the end of every solo performance, I always present the Salvation message before the big finale! It would be pointless to do all this hard work into my craft if God wasn't in the center of this!" - Thomas Walters
