Details:
Tommy Wiggins has been a self-propelled singer-songwriter making records since 1972, long before new wave, punk, modern rock, My Space or the word INDIE meant ROCK. That’s cool, because it means Tommy has kept his funky, personal brand of creativity going for nearly 40 years, and he keeps getting better and better all the time.
Wiggins'' latest digital slab is simply called “10”, which coincidentally is the TENTH recording of Tommy''s original pop/folk/rock tunes. Nearly all of 10’s dozen catchy songs are recent ones, making this recording a true slice of Tommy’s current mindset. From the no-holds-barred opening song “No Graduation Day” to the powerful tribute to his dad “Old Man Sleeping in the Sun”, Tommy continues to set the bar high for just about any standard you can conjure up in songcraft and delivery.
The only vintage Wiggins on this set is “Bible’s on the Table”, written way back when Tommy and his wife were caretakers at a buffalo ranch in eastern Colorado... but that’s another story. “10” by Tommy Wiggins and his crack performing band is one funky, rockin'' record.
