About Me

After struggling for almost 20 years in the religious scene, Tom Rouse left that sector of music to pursue a more mainstream genre. Pulling together musicians he had worked with over the years(and a few new ones he had just met), they set about to build a c.d. project with songs that Tom had either written or co-written. The result was a self-titled c.d.: Tom Rouse - Left Wing Radical. Tom now works with fellow singer/songwriter Darren Hurst as The DT's. They have recently added lead guitarist, Wayne Bradley and are looking to add other members as they make themselves available. Tom is now single again and has 3 wonderful kids from a previous marriage.
