Musical career
Thomason reached the airwaves with Fresh Enuff, a popular club single and a winning performance at the Apollo Theater in New York City. She toured Europe for over nine years, performing in over 150 European cities. She was also a featured artist with the Paul Winter Consort at the annual Solstice, Missa Gaia and Earth Mass celebrations at St. John the Divine, a cathedral in New York City. Many of these performance were televised on PBS and NBC. Miss Thomason has also performed live at the United Nations for the Dalai Lama.
In 1999, Thomason collaborated with composer Paul Halley on the Pelagos recording of "Sound Over All Waters".
In 2000, Thomason appeared onstage with the American progressive metal band Dream Theater on the Metropolis 2000 world tour, after having appeared on the Metropolis Pt. 2: Scenes from a Memory album. In addition to reprising her vocal parts for the album, Thomason sang on "John and Theresa Solo Spot", improvising over a John Petrucci guitar solo, and sang one verse on "The Spirit Carries On." This performance was filmed and released on DVD and CD under the name Metropolis 2000: Scenes From New York.
Thomason has continued to appear at Dream Theater shows, and performed Clare Torry's famous vocal improvisation on "The Great Gig in the Sky" when the band covered Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam, Holland on October 11, 2005 and the Hammersmith Apollo in London on October 25, 2005. The London show was recorded and released again on both DVD and CD through Dream Theater's Ytsejam Records.
