"A rich, soulful voice with songs full of personality. The British Blues Man for the 21st Century." Waxdolly Independent Radio

"Great sound - and a real "fresh" take on it too whilst still kinda true to the old ways. Impressive." BluesTalk.com

“Tom Attah is a breath of the blues air on the new motorway crossroads. Hear him live soon.” Sue Marchant BBC Regional Radio for the Eastern Counties

“100 years down the line we have Tom Attah coming over like a great nephew of Son House or Robert Johnson. He lays down some beautifully phrased guitar playing and vocals and with more reference points that the encyclopaedia of blues, this man’s music will gather strength and popularity by the second.” David Boswell, Hiem Music

Born in the deep south of England, Tom Attah travelled North to study music in the Steel City of Sheffield at the end of the 20th century and has been based in Yorkshire for over a decade, travelling around the UK and Europe singing and playing his original acoustic blues.

Tom's live shows are filled with energy, humour and stories that illustrate the origins of the blues and meanings of the songs and music. The last 12 exciting months have featured performances throughout the UK at venues and festivals alongside Grammy award winner David "Honeyboy" Edwards, Toots & The Maytals, Connie Lush & Blues Shouter, Robin Trower, Wizz Jones and the Oli Brown Band. Tom has also played several BBC regional radio sessions and has made multiple independent radio appearances.

Driving, rocking, heavy, delicate and relevant, Tom proves that powerful Blues and folk are alive and well with lyrics that resonate and a performance style that recalls the emotional rawness of Robert Johnson, the barrel-chested roar of Muddy Waters, the sophistication of Robert Cray and the simple poetry of Seasick Steve.

"Of all of the styles of music, the Blues is the most intimate, expressive and immediate. I love showing audiences that there is a real joy and excitement in these songs of tenderness and great strength and that the Blues isn't dead history music - it's living, HUMAN music that absolutely rocks!" Tom Attah

Tom's first album is set for release in Q4, 2010.
