Profile
TJ is widely considered one of the UK's finest vocalists and
rhythm & blues piano players. Accompanied by his gritty young band,
he masterfully combines soulful bluesy vocals with swinging piano
to perform a subtle but highly infectious mix of jazz, swing, New
Orleans, blues and saloon songs.
While TJ's musical influences include Ray Charles, Dr John, Louis
Armstrong, Johnny Cash, BB King, Nina Simone etc. his very distinctive
voice reminds the audience that he has his own definite style. The
band play regular dates at London venues including the 100 Club, Pizza
On The Park & Dover Street Wine Bar as well as numerous festivals
in the UK - including Birmingham, Marlborough, Bute and Edinburgh.
He has travelled widely across Europe and has played amongst others,
Silda (Norway), Gothenburg (Sweden), Enkhuizen (Holland) Dresden (Germany)
and Silkeborg (Denmark) and has seven highly regarded albums under
his belt including his latest 'The Heat Of The Night', released on
Lake Records.
