Inspired By Nature
Tommy’s creative energy and songwriting have always drawn inspiration from the countryside.

Following a short stint in London, Tommy swapped a one-bed flat for the big skies, reed beds & sunsets of rural Suffolk where he found himself writing about relationships more than ever before. It was here that he was able to connect with nature again, finding solace in his surroundings and allowing his creativity to flow freely.

This sense of connection with nature is evident throughout “Not That Far To Go” as Tommy’s vocals soar above an enchanting backdrop of lush atmospherics and gentle guitar licks. His lyrics take us on a journey through life’s uncertainties while encouraging us to take comfort in knowing “it’s not that far to go” – no matter what situation we find ourselves in – everything will work out eventually.

His signature sound brings together elements of folk mixed with classical vibes creating a beautiful tapestry of sonic textures that surround Tommy’s emotive vocal delivery perfectly.
