Tommy is the lead singer of NYC's TUFF DARTS, one of the bands that started it all back in the early CBGB days. Tommy now plays with TUFF DARTS as well as his own band, Tommy Frenzy's HARD DRIVE.

Tommy has played live on stage along side of many greats such as Pete Townsend (The Who), John Waite (Babys), Lou Gramm (Foreigner) Ian Hunter, Mike Shreve (Novo Combo, Santana) and Harley Fine (Zeroville).
Tommy has paid his dues on the bowery in NYC as well as on many stages across America from coast to coast.
All of Tommy's music can be downloaded anywhere you can find fine mp3's on the internet.
