Tom Richardson is your newest oldest friend! With an infectious and genuine demeanour, Tom’s songwriting, story telling and intricate guitar playing are a delicate balance of grace, truth and passion. Appreciating the freedom of exploration and the privilege of forging relationships with listeners and cultures around the world, Tom has performed in 15 different countries across the globe, reflected in his musical arrangements that may be best categorised into experiences and emotions than genre. Renowned as a “maestro” for his “clever skills” (The AU Review) on the loop pedal, Tom is seen dancing over his pedals, creating soundscapes of four part vocal harmonies, multiple guitar sections and complicated percussion grooves, all live on stage. Described as the “best opening to a festival yet!” (Port Fairy Folk Festival, Australia), at a live performance, it's not uncommon to experience people laughing, crying, dancing and singing - often long after the show has finished. Entire theatres have been known to exit at the end of a performance, continuing to sing in unison all the way out. Connect. Conscious. Community. Only Love. www.tomrichardsonmusic.net New solo EP 'Pockets' OUT NOW!!
