Listener Tags & Comments

Tommy used to be in a band called Nitecry that played many gigs throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. My best friend and I were big fans and saw many of their shows. Tommy has that something special and can really play and sing the blues. If you google Nitecry you'll find pictures and info on this previous incarnation. --Feklhr
