THE STATIONERY FACTORY - North Room

Tommy was born and raised in Dalton Massachusetts and has been performing throughout the northeast since 1978. While playing in New York City in 1985, Tommy was cast in the Tom Hanks/Shelly Long comedy “The Money Pit”. He was a Bridesmaid at Tom and Shelly's wedding along with band members Chris Tuttle, Doug Plavin and Ed Vadas of the Fabulous Heavyweights band along with Leslie West, from the band Mountain. A side note: (At about 9 o'clock Saturday night August 16th 1969, Leslie West and Mountain took the stage for a memorable hard driving performance at the original Woodstock Music and Art Fair in Bethel New York). Tommy has played his 1965 Fender Stratocaster along side Otis Rush and Ed Vadas, and opened for Orleans, James Montgomery, James Cotten, Jon Pousette-Dart, Rick Danko, Commander Cody, David Bromberg, Dickie Betts, Paul Butterfield and many other fabulous performers over his 41 year career. "Currently the band is performing the originals from both albums and people are commenting on the freshness of the new music. I like to have fun playing, performing and trying new things at every how!
