AS BEFORE THERE IS A HEAVY EMPHASIS ON COLLABORATION WITH MANY OF HIS PEERS AND MUSICIANS HE HAS WORKED WITH OVER HIS CAREER, ALWAYS EMPHASISING A COLLECTIVE SHARING OF INDIVIDUAL VOICES THROUGH HIS MUSIC WHERE POSSIBLE. TOM IS STRIVING TO REALLY SHOWCASE HIS INFLUENCES AND LOVE OF VARIED MUSIC IN A FORMAT THAT IS UNASHAMED BUT ALSO UNRESTRICTED FROM A CREATIVE AND EXPRESSIVE POINT OF VIEW. THE ALBUM FEATURES SOME WELL KNOWN MUSICIANS FROM THE WORLD JAZZ SCENE WITH FEATURES FROM CHRIS ‘DADDY’ DAVE, FREDERICO HELIODORO, ANATOLE MUSTER, OTIS SANDSJO AND LOGAN KANE TO NAME A FEW. LIVE TOM PERFORMS THIS MATERIAL WITH A STRIPPED BACK BAND THAT USUALLY COMPRISES A TRIO (GUITAR, BASS AND DRUMS), PREFERRING TO INTERPRET THE MUSIC RAW AND ROUGH LIVE IN LINE WITH HIS LOVE OF 80S POST PUNK AND NEW WAVE.
