I am a solo musician (vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, suitcase kick drum and Digitech Trio Band Creator effects pedal). I play the blues along with a few roots originals and covers of artists like Bob Dylan, Tom Waits and Stones. I have been playing music in the Triangle for over 30 years. Among others, I played with blues artists Big Boy Henry and Slewfoot. For the electric blues I add a full drum kit to the mix with a Digitech Trio Band Creator effects pedal. I like to do a wide variety of blues influenced songs. I can play to fit your venue or event, from low key traditional acoustic blues to electric New Orleans and Chicago blues. Just tell me what you need.

June 24, 2019Sleepy Tom was perfect for our event. His music was bluesy and fun with just enough rock and roll to keep the mood upbeat!
He was very conscientious of the music volume. He played at the perfect volume to allow our diners to enjoy the music, as well as enjoy the company of their guests.

I have been playing in the area for almost thirty years. I have a large repertoire within the blues and roots music genres. I am sensitive to my surroundings and enjoy playing music that fits well with the event or venue. I can play very laid back traditional acoustic blues, originals and covers and/or add some electric blues songs if more volume and intensity is needed ; )

I have a PA that works well for small venue, small outdoor events and parties. I play acoustic and electric guitars and use a Digitech trio band creator pedal to do some of the electric blues stuff.
