Waiting

Songwriter in Seattle, WA. Right now just posting low-quality demos here. Maybe I'll upload some more "finished" tracks eventually. For the time being, considering this a bit of a dumping ground for rough sketches.

No particular pet genre. Just write whatever falls out of my brain.

"An immense talent" - Dennis Greaves
"Like Jools on the piano" - Noel Gallagher

With his keyboard wizardry, mean guitar, and energetic showmanship, Tom Monks has been putting Sidcup on the map since flying out of its maternity ward with a Minimoog, moptop and mohair suit.

As a critically acclaimed multi-instrumental singer, producer, songwriter and rock'n'roller, Tom is unleashing whimsically infectious songs of his own with an album on the way.

His debut album is launching with a bang this summer - with all songs written, played, arranged, produced, and all instruments performed (aside from a couple of guest stars) entirely on his own, and a supergroup live spectacle to boot.

When not touring the UK and Europe with bands like Nine Below Zero, The Aim, and The Truth, he's putting his all into South East London's local live music hub and his own creative and sonic urges - with BBC airplay, SoulTown, European tours and The Royal Albert and Festival halls under his belt - and recently headlining Danson Fireworks to a 23,000 strong audience.

"Whimsical wizard" - Ashley Stacey, Britpop solo artist

"National treasure" - The Iron Horse, music venue

"Seriously who IS this guy half my age and HOW does he play this stuff?" - Nathan Persad

​"Just a bundle of energy, talent, charisma and massive stage presence all wrapped up in one utterly lovely human being" - Calli Malpas

​"Ridiculously talented" - Grant Judges, The Aim
