It was non-stop for Tom Bright in 2021. With a stunning series of singles scattered throughout the year, he went on to whet the whistles of some of the biggest names in broadcasting with his second album, ‘Legacy’ (produced by Ed Harcourt).

He gained huge praise from Elbow legend Guy Garvey on BBC 6 Music, new music champion John Kennedy aired every release on his iconic Radio X show (hosting Tom for a live session the day after the album release), and he even landed in Spotify’s editorial playlist The Most Beautiful Songs in the World with his heartbreakingly raw ‘If I Met Your Shadow’.

Support stretched all the way up to Iain Anderson on BBC Scotland, across to Ireland on RTÉ Radio 1 with Lilian Smith, and also came from long-term followers Gary Crowley (BBC London) & Dean Jackson (BBC Introducing).

For someone who was once the youngest pub landlord in the UK, Tom has turned his life upside down and now confidently showcases his immense strength as a songwriter. His voice has an ethereal quality, his songs are infectious and ‘Legacy’ was a sublime sophomore record.
