Ezra Thomas is two musicians, singer/songwriter, guitarist Ezra Vancil and drummer/ percussionist Aaron Thomas from Dallas, Texas. They performed at Austin's SXSW Music Conference in March 2002.

Ezra Vancil's background includes three years perfecting his soulful vocal style with the acoustic folk/rock band, Gypsy Tree, with whom he recorded two studio albums. When Gypsy Tree disbanded, Ezra met percussionist Aaron Thomas and felt inspired to enlist the drummer's considerable skills for a 1994 solo effort, Closer. It was clear to Ezra and Aaron that both their musical sensibilities and personalities complimented each other. 1996 saw their first truly collaborative project, Buck 50, and the two played together in the Pop/Rock band, Dogma and the Universe, before the official formation Ezra Thomas in 1998.

Produced and engineered by Mark Hallman (Ani Difranco, David Garza, Oasis and Carole King), the band's first album was its 2002 release The Weight of Being.
