Aged just 23, Tom Wardle is one of the most unmistakeable performers on the live scene today. Possessing a voice that seems to defy his size and a style that references pop's golden years of sharp suits and smash hits, Tom's brand of classic pop has served him well.
Tom has gigged across the length and breadth of the country, from his residencies at Nottingham's Snug Lounge Club and the University of Nottingham to Mahiki in London's Mayfair, powering out two hours of energetic and glorious guitar pop each night. Tom is also a live favourite at RAF stations around England, being booked for both summer and winters balls at, amongst others, RAF Cranwell.
In February 2010, Tom released his long awaited debut EP "Another Late Night" simultaneously on iTunes and Spotify, as well as a 500 limited-edition first run that sold out in a matter of gigs and is currently in its second pressing.
Tom Wardle has been in bands since 16, learning the trade and serving his apprenticeship with his first band 8 Idle Hands, supporting rock legends Slade and The Sweet along the way. Since disbanding them in 2006, he has worked closely with acclaimed songwriter Tim Kellet (Simply Red, Olive) and producer Steve Bush (Stereophonics) on songs for Tom's own catalogue, supported his teenage idol Mark Morris of The Bluetones, as well as playing session guitar, most recently playing on the demos for James Morrisson's "Songs For You, Truths For Me" album.
Tom is currently writing, road-testing and stockpiling and eclectic new batch of songs for his follow up EP, planned for release in winter 2010.
