The Barlfy in Camden is so synonymous with the London music scene it should be declared a UNESCO World Heritage site. Hey! It could happen!

So with that in mind, it will be a privilege for Tom to join Heathers on-stage on Thursday 26th April.

See you THERE.

Formerly The Beautiful South, the newly constructed band that took the music world by storm in the 90′s has renamed themselves The South. Does their following dwindle? Not 1 iota!

The 600 capacity venue, The Brook was sold out and fans were queueing outside the doors! They filled the room before Tom took to the stage and gave them a helping of Fire In The Doll’s House and the rest of the album’s songs.

The crowd certainly paid attention and gave Tom one applause after another. In particular, they hushed as Tom sang the new single Fire In The Doll’s House and gave an noticeably longer applause for his efforts.

Thanks to all who came and to trusty Rick Hornby on guitar for joining Tom on the road. Couldn’t have done it without you!

Head to the photos page to see how it went!

Indeed Tom is to join The South on a number of dates throughout their spring 2012 tour. First dates in the diary are February 11th at The Brook in Southampton and then 22nd Feb at Tokyo in Lincoln.

Tom is really pleased. “They asked me to support them on a number of dates a couple of years ago and it’s great to see them still going out there, selling out venues and wowing the audiences. I can’t wait.”

To get your tickets, head to the ‘Live’ page here on this site. More dates to be confirmed. You’ll be the first to know!

Just to remind you about The Beautiful South. After 20 years, ten studio albums, five greatest hits compilations, thirty-four chart singles, 15 million record sales worldwide and performing in front of millions of fans, when time was called on The Beautiful South in 2008, not everyone was ready to leave the party. Dave Hemingway and Ali Wheeler, lead singers with the band were having too much fun to get out the pipe and slippers, and so The South was formed. Joining the duo were fellow mainstays from the band: keyboard wizard Damon Butcher and the potent horn section of Gaz Birtles and Tony Robinson that brought so much to the live shows. Armed with a sensational back catalogue of hits such as ‘Song For Whoever’, ‘Perfect Ten’, ‘Rotterdam’, ‘Don’t Marry Her’, ‘You Keep It All In’, ‘Old Red Eyes Is Back’ and many others, there is a long way to go on this particular road.

This band has history and pedigree. Dave Hemingway’s musical career stretches back into the Eighties. He became a founder member of The Beautiful South after the demise of The Housemartins, who had enjoyed a sustained purple patch and many hits before calling it a day in 1988. Whilst bassist Norman Cook went on to become superstar DJ Fat Boy Slim, Paul Heaton and Dave Hemingway proceeded to form the new band in December 1988. Right from the off, The Beautiful South seemed to defy the normal logic associated with pop bands, not least for the fact that they stayed together for 20 years.

Over the life of the band, they produced many self-penned hits and had several number one albums – they scored their only number one single with the Dave Hemingway / Briana Corrigan duet ‘A Little Time’. A globally successful band, members of The South have performed these songs in front of hordes of fans from Hull to Houston. They love the material and know what will keep the fans happy.

Now with The South marking the next step in these musicians’ careers, the band are starting to add in exciting new songs to their repertoire. Competition for space in a set-list packed with so many hits is fierce, but the quality of some of the new material is such that the songs have slotted right in – and the fans’ reaction has been amazing.

See you on the road!

BIG NEWS! Tom will be supporting FOY VANCE on February 9th 2012 at the legendary Islington venue, The Relentless Garage.

It’s all part of the HMV Next Big Thing festival which takes place across 9 venues in London from the 2nd-12th February. It’s amazing for Tom to be a part of it and join the names of so many artists performing over the 11 days that are all set for great things in 2012.

Tom says: “It’s going to be great supporting Foy Vance, I’m a massive fan of his work. I used to live just round the corner from The Garage and used to always go there. It’s been a while since I was last there but will be cool to make my return there performing such a big gig!”

It’s going to be a huge night with One Sixth of Tommy also on support duties.
