About / Biography

*Available In Scotland from April 2025*

Tom Bedlam Music is available for hire as an Acoustic duo (male/female) or solo (male). Originally from South Wales and Yorkshire, we have played throughout the UK and internationally for a number of years now, including Italy, Germany, Austria, Noway, Sweden, Belguim, Australia and New Zealand, amongst others. We can work with you to tailor the perfect performance for your requirements, for example, the following:

1. Weddings/Private Events

We play a range of private functions, ranging from garden parties to office parties, to weddings. We find that live music can make a huge difference in bringing something special to an event and have played anything from a business networking evening to singing a bride down the aisle. We have a wide range of music available for whatever you need.

2. Cafes/restaurants

We love to play at cafes and restaurants and help create the ideal 'coffee shop' atmosphere. We appreciate that these venues require a different style to the average pub musician, we have invested in the equipment we use, for example, the AER Compact Mobile amp, in order to provide the highest quality sound possible.

3. Pub music nights

We have a large range of music that spans across the genres of pop, rock, folk and more. Our setlist is very flexible and can be tailored to suit audicences of all ages. We are very experienced and have been playing live and professionally for almost 15 years now. We have the capacity to play to a more lively audience, using a loop pedal to build a backing track live and on the spot, perfect for an upbeat Saturday night atmosphere. We pride ourselves on being a great act for any occasion.

4. 'Off Grid'

We have a completely battery powered, excellent quality AER 60w Acoustic amplifier for small to mid sized audiences where there is no access to power. Perfect for outdoor weddings or events that dont have easy access to electricity.

We look forward to working closely with you to provide a memorable performance suited to any situation. If you have any further questions or wish to discuss an event please do get in touch, we are more than happy to answer any questions. Of course, we have a full PA system and a smaller system for smaller events.
