SUMMARY:Tom A. Smith
LOCATION:Arts Club
DESCRIPTION:Following the acclaimed release of Put On A Record Tommy EP ear
 lier this year\, Tom A. Smith is extending the doors of Tommy's Dance Plac
 e with a brand-new single\, the anthemic “Am I Ever Gonna Be A Rockstar?
 ” which has been released with an extended version of fan favourite “P
 ut On A Record Tommy” and a cover of Talking Heads (Life During Wartime)
 . All three tracks arrive alongside the announcement of the deluxe edition
  of Put On A Record Tommy EP\, due for release on September 9th via Fictio
 n Records. Tom also today announces an extensive UK headline tour in Novem
 ber and December. Rather than simply revisiting the EP\, the deluxe editio
 n expands its world\, adding fresh perspective to one of the year's most e
 xciting breakthrough releases. New single “Am I Ever Gonna Be A Rockstar
 ?” sees Tom turning the spotlight inward\, confronting the expectations
 \, comparisons and self-doubt that often accompany a rapidly rising career
 \, while never losing sight of the joy that first inspired him to make mus
 ic. "Being my own producer I am always experimenting with sonics and my mu
 sic whilst trying to keep my individuality and style\," Tom explains. "I a
 m often compared to other artists\, which is amazing\, but it adds a certa
 in pressure to try and maintain that\, whilst also wanting to just create 
 the music I am inspired by at that time. My music is always changing\, dev
 eloping with me and it doesn't need to be pigeon-holed into a certain genr
 e or style." Alongside the new single comes an extended version of “Put 
 On A Record Tommy”\, allowing listeners to dive even deeper into the eup
 horic\, theatrical universe Tom introduced on the original EP. "Tommy's Da
 nce Place isn't quite over yet\," he says. "We've got a few more lessons f
 or you and Tommy's got a few more things he'd like to say. Stay on the dan
 ce floor\, we are open till late." The original EP marked another huge ste
 p forward for the 22-year-old songwriter\, balancing infectious indie hook
 s with deeply personal songwriting. Tracks including “SFX”\, “Our So
 ng”\, “The Only One” and “Put On A Record Tommy” showcased an ar
 tist refusing to stand still creatively\, blending indie rock\, dancefloor
  energy and emotional honesty into a sound that feels unmistakably his own
 . That fearless creative evolution has quickly become Tom's defining quali
 ty. Whether producing his own records or continually pushing his songwriti
 ng into unexpected territory\, he has established himself as one of the UK
 's most exciting young artists\; someone determined to follow inspiration 
 rather than expectation. Already boasting an extraordinary live résumé t
 hat includes appearances at Glastonbury\, BBC Radio 1's Big Weekend\, SXSW
 \, and support tours alongside Elton John\, Gang of Youths\, DMA'S\, Catfi
 sh and the Bottlemen\, Miles Kane and The Lottery Winners\, Tom continues 
 to build momentum at remarkable speed. These past few months have seen a l
 ocked out Great Escape show\, a record turnout at the BBC Intro Stage at R
 adio 1’s Big Weekend in Sunderland and playing to packed crowds at Isle 
 of Wight\, Truck\, and Kendal Calling in addition to massive outdoor shows
  with The Maccabees\, The Kooks and The K’s. Away from music\, he has al
 so been cast as Dave Stewart in the forthcoming musical memoir film Ebony 
 McQueen. The release of the deluxe edition arrives alongside a continued p
 acked run of festival appearances and a headline tour in November and Dece
 mber\, ensuring Tommy's Dance Place remains open well into autumn and beyo
 nd.\n\nBoletos: https://www.fatsoma.com/e/widyvqz8/tom-a-smith
