Fred has written songs to be produced under a solo title, as well. His songs are not only inspirational, but his melody and guitar lines are soothing, sweet, and noteworthy of superb composition.
Fred Thomas, the most amazingly kind person, who has been in many influential Michigan bands, re-located to Portland, Oregon to work on his experimental project "Boundless/Countless."
In the summer of 2007 he moved to New York City.

He has also appeared or collaborated with Pierre-Laurent Aimard, Jordi Savall, Jarvis Cocker, Ethan Iverson, Benoît Delbecq, Elina Duni, Tamara Stefanovich, Leo Abrahams and Olivia Chaney, as well as record labels Harmonica Mundi and Realworld.
