Smoke Notes

The latest release from Wellingtons Loop Recordings shows a departure for the label, announcing their first foray into a more commercial and traditional pop/rock direction courtesy of this fine debut album from Wellington-based four-piece Tommy. Comfortably sitting alongside the contemporary adult pop/rock of the likes of Jack Johnson, Counting Crows and John Butler Trio, Tommy add their own unique New Zealand take on proceedings via a melodic folk roots sound that blends together moods of reggae, rock, soul and of course pop. In namesake Tommy Benefield the band have a highly lyrical songwriter who writes with the warmth and intimacy required of such work, while the band deliver suitably subtle and unobtrusive backing (with the aid of occasional guests such as Fat Freddys trumpeter Toby Laing, Stylus77 slide player Adi Dick and the delightful Holly Smith). With videos made for potential singles Stepping Stones and Rise, Tommy, with their set of easily engaging emo tinged songs, appear to be on the road to big things. Recommended.
