Although Austin’s Tomar Williams has always felt right at home singing lead, he’s only fallen back into the frontman role in recent times.

Palpitations of funk, blues, and rock course through the quintet’s debut album Heart Attack, where tight arrangements and electrifying performances earned Tomar and The FCs the title of our January 2017 Artist of the Month.
