After spending several years in Sydney in the early eighties, he headed overseas to perform in some of the finest hotels in Asia. Well received in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, Tommy headed to Seoul on the South Korean peninsula where he performed with some of the finest musicians on the planet. Since returning to North Queensland in the late 90’s, he has re-established his reputation for excellence in Jazz piano performance.
As a soloist, he manages to find a path, that is all his own. Mastery of the instrument with understated command and respect for the moment, Tommy offers an experience hard to pass up. Tommy’s passion for improvised music threads its way into the tapestry of his repertoire as he weaves his way through Jazz, Latin, R&B or reworked pop tunes.
His vocal prowess is the topping on a very appetising harmonic background, rhythmically and masterfully crafted to provide the complete package that is Tommy.
Recent collaborations with singing star, Wilma Reading has brought the pianist back to the standards, with an appearance at Melbourne’s premier Jazz club, Bennett’s lane. Well received and asked back to play at the Melbourne’s Stonnington Jazz festival is a strong testament to the duos acceptance in Australian Jazz circles.
