   About Tom Rodwell & Storehouse

Tom Rodwell and Storehouse perform wildly original, pastiche-free improvisations drawn from obscure blues, gospel and calypso sources - housewrecking blues, spirituals and otherworldly roots. Always fresh, no bullshit, proper. It's a living. Touring locations since 2003 have included New Zealand, the UK, Switzerland, the USA, Holland and soon your town.

The recordings above have no overdubs or edits or effects of any kind. The songs have no fixed arrangements and are tailor-made for the moment and the evening. Each concert evolves in a unique way, hopefully reaching different points on the response spectrum. You gotta feel, think and dance. "The only content of this music is the feeling," - TR.

QUOTES: "By turns wild, angry, hypnotic and sensual, it's as uncompromising as it is funky and some of the best live music I've seen." Blues in London. "Thanks for making my job a lot harder, man. I was gonna go out there and play a bunch of bullshit, now I actually gotta go do something." - Otis Taylor. "Psychotic gospel music," - Blues in Britain. "I danced so much I can now hardly walk, thanks so much," - DJ Sophie Toes. "The most blistering one man set we've seen," - Gigwise. "Punishing," Sheffield Telegraph. "Raw, avant-garde improvisations," - Metro (NZ). "Real groove, no pretension, zero bullshit, that is rare it seems." - Michael Pickett (Juno Award winner). "Very interesting improvisational / experimental music," - Larry Wines, programmer-producer-host, "Tied to the Tracks", syndicated LA Americana radio show. "Refreshingly different, very genuine and unforced and with a seriously juicy groove," - Giles Hedley and the Aviators. "Been a while since anyone's heard a song quite like that," - BBC World Service, The Beat. "You smooth bastard," - someone in Deptford, London 2008. "I thought it was gonna be slash your wrists shit, but you made me feel like I was driving a Cadillac," - someone in Shoreditch.

Sessions recorded on the following formats: hard disc, wax cylinder, 1 inch reel to reel tape, cassette, dictaphone, telephone answering machine, and soon acetate.

'Merchandisable manifestations' - i.e. CDs and stuff - are soon available from somewhere or other near you, but quite often available at shows.

...although I'm as busy as ten whorin' bitches, 10 bastards is pretty busy, even by my standards.

Give me plenty of heads up on the actual day you'll be rolling into Ogden, and we'll hook up.

Until then, take care, and I hope all is going well with you.

Oh sweetie I am such a ditz, it’s all this living in the future whilst stuck in the past in the present that’s confusing me. Still I know Fridays a goer because it’s the weekend in the future that’s yet to pass my way and this fortune teller can see herself in that space.
See ya in the future again.
