   With training from the Forman School of Dramatic Arts in Chicago, Thomas became an excellent actress. Before she could expand on her acting career, Evelyn met English producer/writer Ian Levine who was producing danc music in London.
   Traveling almost immediately to London, she recorded her first dance hit "Weak Spot" (20th Century Fox) which soon reached number 5 on the British dance charts.
   Soon she was living out her dream. She was aked to perform on one of Britain's top television shows "Top of the Pops" - where she performed with the likes of Andy Williams, Glitter Band, and Squeeze. She quickly was touring the UK with a ten-piece orchestra.
   In 1984, Evelyn recorded the monstrous hit "High Energy," written and produced by Ian Levine and Friachra Trench, on the Record Shack Records label. High Energy reach #1 throughout the world, and created a "High Energy" dance craze almost over night. 
   Since the mid 1980s, Thomas has recorded many songs, albums, and videos. In 1997, Billboard magazine charted "Tell The World" by Redemption Featuring Evelyn Thomas. 
   Today, she is still performing her dance hits at a variety of different venues, and is also strongly focused on her Gospel music career. She is involved in the production of several musicals, and performs as a solo act and with several music groups.
