Tom Brosseau

"totally earthbound and at the same time sorta out there in the ether." NPR's All Things Considered - Tom Moon

With eight releases to date and now living in LA, TOM BROSSEAU was born and raised in Grand Forks, North Dakota. He hails from a family background steeped in music - growing up in a house with instruments lining the walls, and learning to play at an early age. He was taught guitar by his grandmother, whilst his grandfather played in a band called Buck and the Bucanneers, that included fiddle and double bass. His grandfather also had a great collection of records, and Tom's early influences included Guy Lombardo and The Inkspots. A "balladeer with beautifully crafted songs." Nic's Harcourt (Morning Becomes Eclectic), the gentle acoustic sound of Tom's music elicits literate tales of poetic observation, evoking American writers such as John Fante, F Scott Fitzgerald, and John Steinbeck.
