Tom Burgess

Tom Burgess is a Basildon born, Southend-based singer songwriter who learnt guitar aged 13 by practising Oasis songs. After a few years playing in his bedroom Tom followed the natural progression of joining a band, albeit a covers band. The band played mostly Indie-rock which forced Tom to move from his Gallagher influenced open-chord style to power chords. Tom then concluded that he'd had enough of playing other people's songs and started to write his own. His songs were met with much appreciation from his peers in the local music scene.
