"His expert breath control left the ecstatic audience sighing in awe." "Tall and handsome with a charismatic style, Thomas completely mesmerized his audience when he performed a seldom, if ever seen feat, by performing a solo playing simultaneously on two saxophones." "The crowd gave him thunderous applause, coupled with shouts, whistles, and cheers." "The notes went on so long, and people loved it." "Thomas has an unusual talent, and I am predicting a bright future for him." Garner began his musical training in Petersburg, Virginia at the age of eight on piano. As he delved into his classical piano studies, his mother guided him toward learning how to play the saxophone. His father, an audiophile, exposed him to many classical and jazz recordings that influenced him from the time he was a toddler. By the time Garner was eighteen, he accumulated top marks in various musical competitions in Washington state. He performed on saxophone in numerous honor bands throughout the world. Garner attended college at Western Washington University where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in music. Eventually, Garner moved to Seattle, Washington where he began to compose original songs. He performed in clubs, concerts, and jazz festivals where he earned a reputation as an exciting soloist. He is noted for circular breathing and playing two saxes at the same time. His televised performance at Seattle's KOOL Jazz Festival before several thousand listeners was well received by the audience and critics alike. Garner currently resides in North Hollywood, California where he performs in concerts, recording studios, movies, and television. Notable performers he has worked with include Prince, Diane Schuur, Sammy Davis Jr., Gregory Hines, Stephanie Mills, The Temptations, The Four Tops, and Little Richard. He has been warmly embraced by audiences at the Jazz Festival, Queen Mary Jazz Festival, Festival International, Bellevue Jazz Festival, and other performances on three continents.
