Thomas Damett

Thomas Damett (?1389/90 to 15 July 1436/14 April 1437) was an English composer of the late Medieval and early Renaissance eras.

The illegitimate son of a gentleman, he was a commoner at Winchester College until 1406–7 and became rector of Stockton, Wiltshire, in 1413. His name appears occasionally in the Royal Household Chapel accounts between 1413 and 1430–31. Nine works by him – six mass movements (including a Gloria-Credo pair based on a Square) and three motets (one isorhythmic) – survive in the Old Hall Manuscript and may be autographs.

He was also prebendary of Rugmere in St Paul's Cathedral 1418–1436, was appointed to the fifth stall in St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle in 1431 and held the canonry until 1436.
