He's a sensitive and brilliant Australian guitarist.

Check out his use of harmonics in Over the Rainbow.

He's on the right here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvNuigQrFM8

His technique gives me goosebumps, but unlike some other wizards (like oh Ewin Dobson) he doesn't just show off, he also remembers to make music.
He plays an Australian brand of guitar that I'd never heard of called Mayton.

Tommy is quite well known in Australia and to a lesser extent Phil his brother who plays/tours with him a lot as well.... you should be able to find more tracks of them both if you google both.

He tours quite a bit & plays at the Christmas Carols here (which is televised nationally) most years;

I saw Marina, the lady who is performing in the link above with him singing in Cats (the Brisbane arena version) yesterday - she is amazing too :D

Tommy has taught a number of gifted young guitar players here and around the world too which is wonderful!!!!
