About Me

I came up balancing late-night studio sessions with early-morning work shifts, building my music in the in-between moments. As a young parent and full-time worker, I quietly shaped a catalog rooted in honesty, intimacy, and lived experience. Those years laid the foundation for a growing body of work that continues to reach new listeners. Now, with a new home studio, an evolving creative platform, and a deeper vision, I’m focused on expanding the world around the music and inviting fans inside the process as the next chapter takes shape.

Story

This isn’t reinvention. It’s continuation.

I’m Landon Thomas, an R&B artist and audio engineer from Pittsburgh. Over the years, I’ve released music independently while engineering, studying sound, and learning how to build projects without burning myself out. That dual role shapes everything I do. I don’t separate the art from the process.

My work has reached over a million streams and found its way into film, editorial platforms, and global playlists—but visibility was never the goal. I was more interested in making something honest enough to last.

Lately, the work has expanded. Albums turn into narratives. Songs feel like scenes. Live shows feel closer to gatherings than performances. I’m less interested in chasing moments and more focused on documenting growth—what it looks like to keep choosing love, even when it’s inconvenient.

Creative Approach

I write from the middle of things.

My music explores love, temptation, faith, and responsibility—not as ideas, but as daily decisions. I’m drawn to imperfect characters, unfinished conversations, and the quiet tension between who you are and who you’re trying to become.

I treat projects like timelines, not drops. Each release connects to the next, leaving room for change. If you listen closely, you can hear the gaps. Those matter to me.

Beyond the Music

Hands‑on engineering and sustainable systems.

I’m hands-on with everything I release. I engineer my own sessions, shape the sound, and build the systems that allow the work to move without rushing it. That independence gives me control, but more importantly, it gives me patience.

I’m building something meant to grow with me.

What I’m Building

Music, sound, writing, and visuals moving together.

  • Albums that function as timelines, not moments
  • Visuals that extend the story instead of distracting from it
  • Live experiences that feel intentional and close
  • Creative systems that allow growth without erasing real life

This is about sustainability—creative, emotional, and practical.

Upcoming

Can’t Stay Forever — a project centered on impermanence.

Details forthcoming. I’m letting this chapter move without urgency, letting moments pass without forcing conclusions.

Nothing here is rushed. Everything is still becoming.
