"....(Tom's) calming yet emotive voice wraps around his songs of heartbreak and hope like smoke from a winter fire." - The Courier Mail
"...you almost feel that you've snuck into Cooney's room and are reading his diary.....at times just a lone guitar and voice so close you feel you can reach out and touch them." - Time Off
New album “Presque Vu” released by new independent label, el nino el nino - a label run for, and by, artists.
"Presque Vu is beautifully touching and prettily austere. Think Ryan Adams with fewer country roots or Fionn Regan with a smidgen more rock atmospherics. Think well worth having." - The Sydney Morning Herald.
"Subdued yet capable of understated power, Cooney’s is a voice that instantly moves the listener." - Time Off

Dearest Dick Lover, My dear son and his naughty band have released a fitting tribute to the end of George Bush's reign of terror with their animated filmclip George Bush's Chicken. Starring George W at home on the ranch with his muslem chicken Ned as well as guest appearances from some of his closest circle including Osama Bin Laden, Paris Hilton, Saddam Hussein, Barack Obama and Mr Ed, this is the behind the scenes insight the world has long waited for.
