American Tune: Simon, Croce and Taylor

Tom Glynn is a child of the seventies, who spent countless hours learning every guitar and piano lick by his musical heroes as he wore out the grooves on their records. He went on to become an award-winning singer-songwriter himself and is thrilled to be paying homage to these musical giants. Tom uses a unique semi-standard guitar tuning that stays true to the artists’ signature fingerstyles while adding a deep, lower register to the instrument, essentially accompanying himself on bass to add a warmth and fullness for the audience. Tom is an award-winning singer-songwriter that The Boston Globe calls “a tunesmith at the top of his game”. He’s a John Lennon Songwriting Contest winner as well as a Boston Music Award nominee for Outstanding Songwriter. Several of his songs have been chosen by NSAI (Nashville Songwriters Association International) for their coveted Top 40 honor, and his music has been featured on ABC, Fox, Lifetime and Showtime. His 2023 album “Skylight Intervention” was the most added album to folk radio stations across the country in its first week. It featured a cover of Jim Croce’s “Operator (That’s Not the Way It Feels)” that has received extensive airplay. He has shared stages with the likes of Norah Jones, Five for Fighting, and 10,000 Maniacs to name a few.
