Born in Brooklyn, NY Tom has been playing guitar since the age of 15. Early  musical influences are many and run the gamut from Bluegrass, Country, Rock and Blues. Guitarists such as Doc Watson, Joe Perry, Eric Clapton, Malcom Young, Dickie Betts, Pat Thrall, Glen Tipton, Dave Hlubek, Gary Rossington, Elmore James, Joe Racano and Albert King are just some of what inspired Thomas most. Raised in the great state of Florida (Chomp, Chomp) and having lived in Connecticut and most recently in Los Angeles, Thom now calls Milwaukee, Wisconsin home.
