learned in the company of the masters Sean McGuire, Stephane Grapelli and Bluegrass legend Byron
Berline, give Tom an endless variety of interpretations to his songs and tunes. His live performance
combines a rollercoaster of musical delights from fast, rhythmic dance tunes through beautiful slow
airs and of course, great singing; - all presented with his inimitable sense of humour and style.
Renowned for his musical accompaniments, Tom has played on literally hundreds of albums. The list
includes: Barbara Dickson, Richard Thompson, Allan Taylor and Lindisfarne. Tom began his career in
the ever-vibrant folk scene of Tyneside. His work with a local band gave the opportunity to support
his hero Sean McGuire and many other top names including The Fureys, De Dannan, John Doonan, Boys
of the Lough and even a lock-in with the Dubliners. Tom went on to work in a duo with Bob Fox,
topped the Cambridge Folk Festival with Kieron Halpin and shared stages with Mark O'Connor, Paul
Brady, The Chieftains and many more.
