About Me


With the upcoming release of his new album "No Apologies", Tom Rhodes has taken himself out of the acoustic singer/songwriter genre and thrust himself into the world of rock and roll. Originally from Houston, TX, but now hailing from Brooklyn, NY via Washington D.C., Tom Rhodes has been playing music for a living since he was 16 years old. Now 10 years into his career he has established himself as one of the hottest and most versatile artists in New York, and will be hitting the road again in the summer and fall of 2006.
Coming off a very busy year in 2005, including the release of his first self released solo album and multiple tours of the U.S. and UK, there are no signs of Tom slowing down. In January he was holding down residencies at New York hotspots Southpaw and Rockwood Music Hall. He has been one of the main members of the acoustic collective Whiskey Breath , hosting shows and being the life of the party.

So now it's back on the road with his new band, new songs, and his same fun loving outlook on life. Slugging it out the best way he knows how, you can hear Tom rocking in halls from Texas to New York on one of his upcoming national tours. If you can't make a show you can go online and listen to cuts off of his new album and see pictures from shows at his website http://www.tomrhodesmusic.com , or you can just sit there with your head in the sand and wait for the party bus to pass you by.
