ACROSS THE NEURO SEAS
Released during the height of the “who knew it would go on so long” pandemic lockdown, ACROSS THE NEURO SEAS features 11 indie folk-rock tales in the spirit of Canada’s acclaimed songwriting bards (Hawksley Workman, Sarah Slean, Danny Michel, Joel Plaskett), and with echoes of The Waterboys, Billy Joel, David Bowie, and Ben Folds Five. From the opening waltz of Perpetual Motion Machines and the tender acoustics of Summer Nights in Summertime, to the southern flavours of Savannah Blue and piano swagger of We Shall Be Bound, Bryce’s fourth album flows with a narrative arc that dives deep into the hopes and lives of lovers found, lost, and reclaimed.
“Bryce Thomas has created something special with Across the Neuro Seas… an album full of melody and positive energy… just right for drifting away to for a while during these challenging times.”

ABOUT BRYCE THOMAS:
Canada’s Most Famous
Undiscovered Singer-Songwriter
Bryce Thomas is a brilliant and strikingly handsome singer-songwriter who writes, performs, records, and produces a distinct blend of alternative folk and folk-rock music. His songs are smart, quirky, heartfelt, and bombastic… everything one could want for their life’s soundtrack.
Bryce has independently released four full-length albums: Across the Neuro Seas (2021), Immovable Feast (2015), Midnight in the Garden (2011), and Once Were Explorers (2004)… all while babies slept (his, not some random babies). Bryce also creates all of his stylish album artwork, sexy self-portraits, and mesmerizing music videos, and he is the official sponsor of Canon camera shutter timers and auto-focus.
Bryce was a CBC Music Top 50 judges’ pick in Searchlight 2018 for his song, Midnight in the Garden, and a regional Top 10 finalist in Searchlight 2017 for his song Suburban Wreck.
Catch Bryce live at a variety of Ontario venues in the coming months.

The Waves (Music Video)
The music video for Bryce’s song The Waves was somewhat foolishly conceptualized, performed, and edited by Bryce. The two-hour underwater shoot was filmed by the very talented and brave Canadian photographer Lora Moore-Kakaletris. No instruments were (permanently) harmed during the shoot. Fun fact: Bryce learned how to maximize his time underwater with tips from an online community of live mermaid performers.
Perpetual Motion Machines (Music Video)
Perpetual Motion Machines is Bryce’s first single off his latest album, ACROSS THE NEURO SEAS, and an ode to parenthood, the magic of unexpected dreams come true, and a waltz down rivers to the sea. The official music video was filmed by director/editor Neil Craig (Chopper Pictures) and D.O.P Jerome Tan. Fun fact: To achieve its wonderful, dreamy quality, the video was filmed with Bryce lip-syncing to his song sped up by 200%… which fortunately is half the speed at which Bryce normally talks.
Suburban Wreck (Music Video)
The official music video for Suburban Wreck was conceptualized, filmed, and edited by Bryce. The shoot involved lots of moving furniture, blind faith in auto-focus, and an hour when everyone was out of the house. Fun Fact: No one even knew the shoot happened… that’s how good Bryce is at moving furniture.
