Award winning recording artist COPPER TOM is unique in the ever burgeoning field of childrens music in that he incorporates cool, sometimes arcane, rhythms into new & accessible songs. He draws inspiration from American roots music including old time country, blues &
roots rock &; roll. He might throw in a little New Orleans funk, some Trinidadian calypso, a little Bob Marley &, some deceptively simple tales ( or in the case of his doggie songs- that would be tails) & ;well, you get the picture! Then again, only by listening will you really start to appreciate what his unique musical vision has to offer!

His current release is called GET THE BEAT! Its full of diverse rhythms & interesting songs. Most of the tracks are self-penned & they feature some of the most dynamic musical talents from beautiful & ever-vibrant Ann Arbor, Michigan USA.

COPPER TOM offers an inspiring, entertaining &
interactive live performance for schools, libraries, festivals, special events & performing arts centers. This is typically a 45 minute solo show with the theme Be Creative! The show explores issues of creativity & self esteem, using original songs written recorded by COPPER TOM. For larger venues, the performance includes two full 45 minute sets- with optional supporting musicians and with an emphasis on the music rather than the pedagogy. When COPPER TOM is booked in conjunction with family entertainer MR. VEGAS MAN (Copper Toms musical alter ego for seniors & families- see link) presenters are offered a special discounted rate.
