Menhirs of Er Grah

About Me

Menhirs of Er Grah (Tom Carter) is a singer from London. His music is an emotional and intensely personal collection of journal entries, odes to nature and bitter-sweet love songs, inspired by the acoustic sound of the 1960’s and 70s.The bandname is a reference to the Broken Menhir of Er Grah; a standing stone erected in the Neolithic era that has since fallen down.

The debut album, Different World , has been downloaded over 45,000 times, and a second album, Mourning Dove – is available now on itunes and on CD from Bendi Records .
Selected press:

"He has a vast intelligence on what it means to be an artist… something completely original and enlightening". (Comfort Comes, 'Different World' review).

“Faultless, soulful, acoustic stars”. (Bull & Gate).

“The sound is, to put it simply, quite beautiful’”. (Free Albums Galore).

"If you are looking for hot coffee in the morning through music, let the rain pour down upon you and the beans brew for a half an hour with Tom Carter….This album could surely act as the muse to a better day, maybe even a better existence… Menhirs Of Er Grah is exactly the sort of musician’s artist the world has been awaiting”. (Comfort Comes, ‘Mourning Dove’ review).
