“Everybody deserves music. That’s why I love doing what I do. It brings joy to people’s lives”
Tom is an young composer based in Leeds, England. He wrote his first piano solo at the age of 12, and has since become well-known in the piano community for his fresh, unique sound. After his debut release Dreaming of Forever, Tom's following grew rapidly, and in April 2019, he became an official BBC featured artist, with his track Hiraeth. In February 2019, Tom started working closely with Sonder House Music, led by stellar musician Kyle McEvoy. Since then, Tom has released many singles, with Hopedale appearing on SonderHouse's Recollections Vol.3, which was featured in Spotify's mega Peaceful Piano and Instrumental Study playlists. He also released his debut EP Bliss and his latest album My Happy Place through the SonderHouse label. In 2020, Tom started to work with the record label 1631 Recordings, and has since released his first single with them Opia, backed by Decca Publishing and Universal Music Group. Recently, Tom released Avenoir, as part of SonderHouse’s ‘Recollections Vol.4, shortly followed by a collaboration with Canadian pianist Jesse Brown, called Notes from Tom, which was added to 6 Spotify editorial lists within the first 4 days of release, including Peaceful Piano. Since then, Tom has signed on to many other labels, including Andante Piano and Yellow Rose Records, and releases music under his own self-exclusive label Hammer and String for 6 of his monikers. In 2021, Tom signed a publishing deal with Danish Publishers ExoPAC Recordings, with whom he released the beautiful Memories EP and the Grammy-Nominated Quintain EP, which landed playlists such as Peaceful Piano, Calm Vibes, and many more. Skipping to 2024, Tom focuses on quality over quantity, with releases in partnership with Andante Piano and Aemeralds. The main idea of Tom's music is to offer a place of relaxation in the midst of the hustle and bustle of day to day life. He hopes that you enjoy the music as much as he enjoys composing it for you :)
