Thomas Damett (?1389/90 to 15 July/5 August 1436) 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.[1][2] 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.[1]

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.[3]
