ABOUT

A self-taught singer and songwriter, Thomas Goforth first started performing and writing at the age of 15, fearless and skilled far beyond his years. Forging his mark on the Country music community and fans alike with 2023’s “Jump In My Chevy,” Goforth is riding the wave of momentum, gaining a devoted fan base and tenacious online following. After amassing nearly 80K streams as an independent country music up and comer, he’s no stranger to doing things his own way. 

Blending the contemporary sounds of pop-infused country with hip-hop and r&b influences, Goforth has built a reputation as one of the most unmistakable voices rising in young country music. “I never really had anyone to show me how, so a lot of my success in songwriting has been from trial and error,” says the artist, “so a lot of what I do is based on feel and instinct.” 

Though his music is heavily rooted in the styles of modern hit-makers Morgan Wallen and Luke Combs, Fleetwood Mac remains one of Goforth’s heaviest influences. “Growing up my parents would always blast their songs in the truck, maybe a little Bob Seger and Nickelback here and there,” he adds, “now I guess you can call me a product of those days.”

With such natural confidence, Goforth’s signature style has a magnetism all its own. After years of experimentation blending pop and r&b he’s found himself in his most comfortable surroundings yet- blending country music with modern pop hooks, 70’s rock ‘n roll, and yes, a bit of Usher as well. As a result, Goforth’s narrative voice as a songwriter reflects a depth greater than his years and an approach all his own. 

In this, Goforth has tirelessly sought out his exact place in music. His earliest memory involved a pen and paper with his parents as his first captive audience. “When I turned 9 or 10 my uncle showed me hip-hop and rap which quickly became my new obsession,” he recounts, “from then on I wanted to be the next Eminem.” He continues, “I would write songs in a notebook and use a voice recorder to record myself. I would stand up and rap my songs while they cheered me on… it’s safe to say I knew from a young age that I belonged in the music world.”

Fans new and old continue to gush over Goforth’s entrance into the country music scene. After a string of successful singles to start 2023 he continues his streak with the release of “Devilish” - streaming everywhere August 11th.
