Any friend of Joe Brooks must be cool right? That’s was what
was going through my mind as I visited Tom Mann's Youtube channel after hearing
about him via Joe Brooks' twitter and, as predicted, I was ecstatic with what I
came across. He is not very well known yet with only just under 7,000 YouTube
channel views which makes him different to my previous 'Artist Of The Week's
whom already have a thriving fan base. However, Tom definitely has the
potential to go far. On his channel, he has covered 'How Do I Live' by LeAnn
Rimes and 'You Give Me Something' by James Morrison but also some of his own
songs have been uploaded including 'Beautiful', 'Lost and Lonely' and 'Honey'
which were all previously recorded with the band The Nascent Season. 'Lost and
Lonely' is my favourite of these songs because I love the genuine lyrics and
really good beat. His vocals could be compared to Ed Sheeran but a bit
different as he sings in a higher pitch much like Brian Dales of The Summer
Set. Basically, mix Ed and Brian's voice and you have this wonderful British
creation. I would love to see Tom make more videos and get more views because
he really deserves it. I have attached a video of a medley he performed live of
Bill Withers' 'Aint No Sunshine', Semisonic's 'Secret Smile', Labrinth's 'Last
Time' and The Beach Boys 'God Only Knows', because I am a sucker for a cool
medley of contrasting songs that fit together well.
