Tom combines dazzling, virtuoso classical with thundering, foot stomping boogie woogie.

"the frivolity is infectious, the atmosphere closer to a live performance than the studio; but underlying all of this is his rock solid sense of rhythm"
"balm to the soul... delivered by a young man of much talent... beautifully nuanced, incredibly tender at heart; yet he has all the technical arsenal at his command"
"Beyond exceptional. To conceive and achieve such mastery of the piano shows a talent beyond his years; his music allowed me to explore, dream and discover"
"For one so young, he is rather accomplished on the ivories. I'm not sure if Jools Holland would tackle this variety as well as young Tom has"
"A versatile and unique performer… his lightness of touch gives a most pleasurable experience"
"He has the 88 keys from a wonderful musical world, where the beauty of boogie woogie and the lyricism of a sonata sound like heaven's bells"
"I’ve reviewed more than 1900 albums in the last eighteen or nineteen years, and I have to say that I’ve never heard one quite like this... What an inspiring and amazing discovery! This is an album that needs to be heard to be believed"
"A talented pianist, writer and arranger, this is a CD that I’ll be playing for a long while. Whether you’re a classics fan, a blues fan, a boogie piano fan or even a jazz fan, I think there’s something here for everyone who likes classy piano music, played superbly"
