The man behind St.Thomas is Thomas Hansen from Norway. The breakthrough in Thomas' musical career came during the Quart Festival in Kristiansand in the summer of 1999. An employee at the Norwegian label Dbut thought the material was so good that he wanted to release it, but Dbut turned it down. The employee, John Birger Wormdahl, later started his own label, Racing Junior, together with Robert Jønnum, and also Claes Olsen from the rock club So What in Oslo. One of the new label's first releases was St. Thomas' "Mysterious Walks."
Several albums later, St.Thomas has performed and toured in the US many times.
