Event information
The rise of Tom Bright has seen him appear on BBC’s The One Show, Sky News, BBC Radio 2, BBC 6Music, BBC 5Live, Radio X, perform at the iconic London Palladium, Shepherd's Bush Empire, countless festivals (including four Glastonburys) and tour across Europe multiple times.
He’s gigged relentlessly these past few years, kicking off 2024 by supporting The Libertines and The Leisure Society on their tours, and before that opening for the likes of Mystery Jets, Tom Grennan, Reverend And The Makers just to name a few.
Tom is now winding back the clock by releasing a string of tracks recorded with punk rock royal Mick Jones of The Clash at the start of his career (recently uncovered and mastered by Miles Showell at Abbey Road).
Tom has three albums out in the world to date, all produced by Ed Harcourt. Before his musical endeavours, he was the UK’s youngest pub landlord and is also a former patient of Great Ormond Street Hospital, undergoing a multitude of life-saving operations as a child.
He closes 2024 by supporting Ed in Paris, Sint-Niklaas (Belgium) and London.
