Info for Whiskey Town
The 12-song collection is the realization of a vision that Kaz and his late friend Jimmy Francia shared. Jimmy encouraged Thom to embrace his musical aspirations, and to use that energy to help American war veterans, a cause held dear by both men.
Recorded in both Las Vegas and Nashville, there is a country heartbeat that runs through WhiskeyTown. However, within that framework Thom Kaz and crew create a rich, genre-fluid vibe. From the Music City pop of the title track to barn-burners like “Daddy’s Little Girl” and “Tired of Working ”, the album is a picture-perfect slice of heartland rock & country.
"I remember the moment I gave him the key to his room at the Palace Station Hotel where I was performing on a weekly basis. As we walked through the property, he saw my show posters and asked me why someone like me would even stop to talk to someone like him. It was a moment that I will never forget, and as we walked upstairs together, he was crying and thanking me over and over. I told him that it was me that should be thanking him for sharing his story with me. That night, he showed up at my show wearing the new clothes I had bought him, clean shaven and excited to be sitting in the front row as a VIP. I never saw him again after that day, but the feeling I got from helping him made me want to do it again. The truth is, it was he who inspired me, not the other way around. It was a life-changing moment for both of us and I hope that man knows what he did for me that day was open my eyes to the struggle our veterans are facing." (Thom Kaz)
There is a healthy dose of hairspray-fueled 80s-style Sunset Strip metal on the record. We can hear the influence on on tracks like the Crüe-esque “Blind Man Walking”. “Bad Man” is another, with its Appetite For Destruction-inspired Les Paul groove.
WhiskeyTown is an album based on Thom’s own life experiences and the stories behind the songs are just as entertaining as the songs themselves. For example, the song Outlaw in the USA is a song that talks about standing up for your rights and helping those who sacrificed to give us the freedom we enjoy today. Having a father and a brother that served over 50 years combined motivated Thom to remind our citizens that we the people have a debt to pay for the sacrifices these brave men and women gave for all of us. When you listen to that song, think about those heroes and what they did for our country.
“Outlaw in the USA” is the album’s signature piece. The patriotic song pays tribute to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. It receives two treatments on the record. The first is a fist-pumping country/rock anthem, and then album closes on a heartfelt and melancholy acoustic take.
That song has already brought the WhiskeyTown Warriors project some high-profile attention. Thom Kaz has performed “Outlaw in the USA” on network television. The song’s video was even played on the jumbotron during halftime when his beloved Troy University football team hosted Army at Veterans Memorial Stadium. 5,000 members of the military were on the field while the song played.Music streaming service

Named “One of the Best” by USA Today and Voted “Best Comedy Hypnosis Show” in Vegas 6 years straight, Thom Kaz has blended traditional comedy hypnosis with lasers, dancers and music creating an interactive experience designed to entertain while introducing his audience to the power of the mind. Considered one of the fastest and funniest hypnotists in the world, his show has garnered national and international acclaim as one of the most innovative and creative hypnosis comedy shows ever produced. Robin Leach of the former popular television series “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” has said that “Thom Kaz is an amazing display of Comedy Hypnosis”.
From his role as creator, producer and star of Hypnaughty, Thom has performed around the world and has appeared on HBO, Comedy Central, and countless television and radio appearances. In 2007, Thom was selected to perform by STRIX Television, original creators of the internationally syndicated “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire”, for a new reality show called “The Gambler”. At the end of each day, the player with the largest win total was exempt and the player who lost the most was eliminated. Each evening the contestants were invited to experience a live Las Vegas show. Thom performed on the first night of the broadcast hypnotizing all of the contestants to participate on stage in his Las Vegas show “Hypnaughty” which was seen in 27 countries by over 25 million viewers.
Thom has headlined in Casinos, Comedy Clubs and Theaters throughout the United States and Internationally. In 2008, he was personally selected by Harrah’s Entertainment to perform in their main showroom as the star of the “World’s Funniest Hypnotists”. The show was performed seven days a week in the main showroom at Harrah’s Las Vegas alongside Comedy Magician Mac King and Legendary Comedienne Rita Rudner.
In 2010 Thom brought his dynamic show to Harrah’s New Orleans and Hollywood Casino in Mississippi and played to sold out shows each performance with over 1,000 and 2,500 in attendance respectively each weekend. In 2011, Thom brought Hypnaughty back to the Gulf Coast and performed 17 straight standing room only shows at the IP Casino and Resort in Biloxi, Mississippi. In 2011, Thom was selected as the featured entertainment for the GoDaddy.com Bowl Team Night and has now performed two consecutive years for over 2,000 players, families, bands, cheer squads and associates from the selected teams.
At the conclusion of 2012’s amazing run, Thom entered a new agreement to bring Hypnaughty back to the Hard Rock Casino and Resort in Biloxi, Mississippi in 2013, promising a bigger, even more interactive version of the show. Hard Rock Live! is the new home for Hypnaughty and the collaboration between Thom Kaz and Hard Rock has delivered 24 consecutive laugh out loud performances to over 10,000 guests. In addition to performing, Thom works as a motivational speaker and peak performance coach for professional athletes, business executives and those seeking a higher level of personal achievement. He is active in several charitable and philanthropic endeavors locally and nationally. Thom is tireless in his ongoing efforts to help children and those in need. As an example, Thom helped to organize and produce several fundraising shows along the Gulf Coast donating 100 percent of the net proceeds of each show to Hurricane Katrina victims, and tornado victims in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. He is an avid supporter of several charities including the March of Dimes, United Way, St. Jude’s Childrens Hospital and the Make a Wish Foundation.
