Tom specialises in ‘Northern swing fiddle’ combining Scots/Donegal
styles, with Newcastle hornpipes a speciality. He has a lovely flowing style,
beautiful tone and faultless technique, and is also a fine singer with a
powerful yet mellow voice. He has played with Bob Fox, Kieran Halpin, his own
band Dabhand, & Alistair Anderson’s Syncopace, as well as having a
long-standing musical relationship with Chris Newman & Pauline Cato. He’s
played on many CDs, including for Richard Thompson & Barbara
Dixon.
The workshop, Tom’s third for the Lewes Arms, will focus on rhythm, pace & style on relaxation
techniques for performing. Music will be sent out in advance.
