BIO

Tom grew up in a musical home in Connecticut, and early in his teenage years began to play an old nylon-string guitar his sister had outgrown. Then, captivated by the Rolling Stones on TV, he acquired an electric guitar. On moving to San Francisco in his early twenties, Tom began to play guitar, bass and keyboards in various groups but concentrated on writing and producing songs, for his bands as well as other artists. He’s owned two recording studios, where he honed his producing and arranging chops. Over the years, Tom continued to write songs and produce records. Most recently, Tom works out of a small studio in his home and also has a popular local jazz group called the Jazz Beaus. hiTRecords is a venture designed to showcase local artists of all stripe.
