Almost There

Tom Baxter

unsigned

WE SAY

- No soundclip today - The idiosyncratic, Jeff Buckley-influenced male troubadour market is a crowded one at present, but Tom shines through like a beacon. It's so easy to sacrifice songs for sound and spirit in this genre but Tom writes beautiful melodies that constantly do more than you're expecting them to. Almost There is his best song by far - a classic. Wonderful voice too, that's even better live than on the demos. Check out www.tombaxter.co.uk for more.
