About Tom Harrington

He has spent the past 12 months touring in his van supporting BOY AND BEAR, ZIGGY ALBERTS, MORGAN EVANS, THE DREGGS, KIM CHURCHILL, STEPH STRINGS & DIDIRRI, just to name a few. He was crowned winner of Battle of the Buskers on the Sunshine Coast which saw him appear at Byron Bluesfest, Airlie Beach Music Festival and Gympie Music Muster twice. His music is streamed in over 110 countries each month on Spotify alone and has grown strong organic fan bases across Australia.

He uses live vocal looping to create a larger-than-life sound whilst still remaining present and flowing, to a level unseen in other indie-folk artists. His rural upbringing sees him bringing flavours of country into his music and has that unique rural ability to connect with people in a way that shines. Bound to make audiences feel something new in every performance and singalongs are an absolute requirement.
