Experience a unique fusion of faith and music with the Hillbilly Thomists, a bluegrass band of 8 Dominican priests, in their first international concert in Rome. ????✨????

Join Father Thomas Joseph White and his fellow founders of the Hillbilly Thomists as they bring a blend of American bluegrass, folk music, and Thomistic philosophy to life at the historic Aula Magna of the Pontifical University of St Thomas Aquinas. Discover how these talented musicians, some former professionals, use their music to spread joy, preach, and bring a fresh perspective to Catholic culture.

In this video, witness the band's exceptional performance that drew over 600 attendees, featuring acoustic instruments like the dobro, dulcimer, banjo, and mandolin. Father Peter Gautsch shares the band's mission: to merge traditional music with Dominican theology, creating a powerful medium for preaching and inspiring both the faithful and those exploring their faith.
