About Me

Myspace Contact Tables ************************************************************ **** There is an ethereal quality to Toms music, that really draws the listener in , until the story is told.......(Local Press, London)***************************************************** ***********"Picking on a guitar, melody after melody effortlessly emerged, dressed with some of the finest lyrics i've heard at The Sidewalk.Just at home spiraling to a scream as a bare tonal whisper, he displayed a range and hold on his audience I have rarely seen. I sat as a full room breathed together, when they remembered to. This is a guy to watch"(NYC.com)********************************************* *******************(Review of Jezebel singer/songwriter showcase april '06)- "Irish by birth, Tom's music filled up the room with a wistful sense of soul. The Irish have always been steeped in the art of song, and it showed in his set tonight. Beautiful ballads and clever songsmithing made his set a fantastic start to the evening."*************************************************** *************(Review of Rockwood show '07)...' In the the cosy warmly lit room of Rockwood Music Hall, Irish born singer-songwriter Tom Hayes tookto the stage in a quiet sort of way. One final check of tuning, with the guitar raised to his ear, and the music in the house lowered. The room became eerily quiet. What poured out was a gentle guitar style i havent heard in far too long, and a voice that by end of his first song had at least two of the female attendees misty! My friend who dragged me along with promises of one of Rockwood's nice merlot choices, if i "just heard this kid", sat eyes closed, slowly rocking forward and back to my left. Few times in New York do you get to exist in a moment free of thoughts of the next, but whatever incantation this 23 yr old kid was workin', it was sure workin! this was my first time at one of Tom's shows, but not the last. Catch this kid while you can, before it gets expensive!"..(SUNDAY TIMES, UK)....... ************************************************************ **** You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy .COM's MySpace Profile Editor !
