Doubting Thomas
“They Broke the Mold”
In 1990 The Doubting Thomas Band emerged onto the NC Music scene, attaining critical acclaim on their first gig, at the NC Music Showcase. One Chapel Hill music critic wrote: "there is something marvelous at work here." With Gina Stewart & Brenda Gambill as songwriters, the pair formed a dynamic team of top-notch musical collaborators. Producer Don Dixon said, "I see why they compare you to Fleetwood Mac."
Across more than a thirty year career history, The Doubting Thomas Band has included many collaborators, playing venues from small acoustic coffeehouses to large arenas. The current line-up, together for over ten years includes Gina Stewart, Brenda Gambill, Bill Carroll, Matthew Davenport, Michael Corrigan, & Lenore Prisco. Sometimes joined by veteran members Tim Hill, Mark McColl & Kris Kroll, The Doubting Thomas Band continues to make new music, reflective of todays times. It was then, & now still is, about the music, about the lyrics and poetry, about the vocals & intricate harmonies & complex arrangements. Its about music transporting you to another place, a place of unity, energy & harmony. This band creates songs that will have you singing them in your sleep.
THE DOUBTING THOMAS BAND was named “Most Deserving of National Attention” by the readers of Charlotte, NC’s Creative Loafing, after playing an average of 200 shows per year. The band went on hiatus in 2010, but reconvened after much demand & performed a reunion show the fall of 2022.
