Mick Thomas is mighty proud of his new album ‘Last of The Tourists’. After recording albums as Mick Thomas & The Sure Thing for the last few years, after the demise of his old band Weddings Parties Anything, this time around Mick decided to focus on what is really his first ever solo studio album. After much thought and deliberation, Mick decided to head over to the USA to record the album in Portland, Oregon with long time friend and music associate Darren Hanlon at the producers helm. Mick took long time musical cohort; Mark ‘Squeezebox Wally’ Wallace to play on the album with him. The album also features a guest vocal with Portland’s own Shelley Short.

The result is eleven brand spanking new stories; from heartbreak to history, drinking stories, tall tales and the truth – all as he tells us in his unique form of song. Mick Thomas after three decades of - as he puts it - his ‘continuing song cycle’, surely reconfirms his place as one of the favourite Australian and world renowned singer/songwriters with his new album ‘The Last Of The Tourists’.
Mick Thomas’ The ‘Last Of The Tourists’ was released on Friday March 16th, 2012 through Liberation Music.

Mick Thomas has taken the ‘The Last Of The Tourists’ out on the road from early 2012 with dates all over Australia and will be heading over to the UK and Europe in August with Mark ‘Squeezebox Wally’ Wallace alongside.
His ever evolving talents as a writer and performer and raconteur continue to define a career as intriguing as it is enduring.
