Influences: beatles, simon and garfunkel, hank williams, gordon lightfoot, joni mitchell, many others..Linda and I play for the love of music only.... to share it with others... We play covers because we like adding our own music to the songs we love. We do have originals too, but we like honoring the music that accompanied our lives. . Much love to other music lovers. Tom and Linda
Sounds Like: Linda sounds a little bit like Karen Carpenter , she has a very pure, almost angelic quality to her voice...Her dad, Lou, was a great singer and musician.... Linda may be benefitting from her gene pool... her heart is in country and folk.. but she can sing with an edge when she has to.Tom was heavily influenced by the Beatles ,.. He also grew up influenced by some great artists like Neil Young, Gordon Lightfoot, Bob Dylan, The Band, Stevie Wonder, the Stones, the Beach Boys, The Ramones, Elvis Costello, Bob Marley, Jimmy Cliff, Todd Rundgren, Hank Williams, Willie Nelson, and guitar players like Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Carlos Santana, Jimi Hendrix, Rory Gallagher, Leo Kottke, Chet Atkins, Alvin Lee, Albert King, John McLaughlin, David Bromberg, Randy Scruggs,Roy Buchanan....As a member of Lou Atkinson's Goldmine band in GR, gained appreciation for classic pop and country music, beginning with the music of the 30's to today. "I,ve played everything from the Mills Brothers, to the Allman Brothers, from Hermans Hermits to ZZ Top , from Dion and the Belmonts to Dean Martin, from Marty Robbins to Marty Stuart. Classic remakes will appear on our page in the future , that we still love playing"... Thanks so much for listening, Tom and Linda
