Serendipity - making happy discoveries by accident

About Me


This page pays tribute to the many superb world-wide singer/songwriters largely unrecognised by British National Radio channels and discovered through MySpace, whose Treasure Chest of music has provided me with many fulfilling hours pursuing serendipity. Thank you MySpace.
I enjoy walking with my dog Max - who is much more photogenic than me. He has a most discerning taste in good music, for which he will relinquish his bed and come to listen - or vice versa!

A Tom's Twelve of glittering discoveries - ranging from the intense to the very light.
Only one heard on British radio - once - which was my starting point in this quest! Thank you Stina, played by Mark Radcliffe

Each has their own distinctive way of creating a few minutes of unique sound from what was silence.
