Thomas Charles Clukey

Thomas Charles Clukey is a singer-songwriter from Saco, Maine, whose music is deeply rooted in the landscapes and stories of New England. Growing up in the small town of St. Albans, Thomas was immersed in music from an early age—whether it was listening to Q106.5 Country Music and Country Gold Saturday Night with his dad, performing in his school band, or learning from inspiring teachers and band directors who nurtured his passion for music.

With a sound that blends Country, Roots, and Americana, Thomas crafts songs that feel like heart-to-heart conversations. His influences range from modern icons like Chris Stapleton and Tyler Childers to timeless storytellers like John Denver. His lyrics reflect the grit and grace of everyday life, often exploring how music serves as therapy—a way to process life's challenges while honoring his Maine roots.

Thomas's talent and dedication have earned him notable accolades, including:

  • 🎤 Winner of the Wildwood Studio Songwriting Contest (Brooklyn, NY) – Awarded $500 in studio time.

  • 🎙️ Winner of The Studio Portland Singer/Songwriter Contest – Earned a live studio recording session.

He's performed at local favorites like Erik's Church, Elements, Smoked (Portland), and participated in Songwriters in the Round at Blue—each performance connecting with audiences through authentic, soul-stirring melodies.

Thomas is currently collaborating with Plaid Dog Studio, Boston, MA on his debut album, which he plans to release in Summer 2025, along with a singer/songwriter project at Frog Hollow Studio. His most recent single, "Freedom's Calling", was just released and is already resonating with listeners.

When he's not writing or performing, Thomas finds peace in the Maine outdoors—hunting, fishing, hiking, kayaking. His music embodies the spirit of these salt-of-the-earth experiences, bringing listeners along for the ride through life's highs and lows.
