The mantle of UK Piano Man has been dominated by Elton John, Jools Holland and Jamie Cullum. Over the past five decades, no one else has come remotely close – until now!
Hailed by musical legend Jools Holland as “an extraordinary young talent” and global icon Tom Jones comparing him to Little Richard, Tom Seals is already a huge hit at both home and internationally enjoying regular sell-out shows at London’s legendary Ronnie Scott’s as well as the world-famous Birdland Jazz Club in New York City and the prestigious Dubai Opera House.
Previous guests on the SKY show ranged from Matt Lucas, KT Tunstall, Sir Kenny Dalglish, Diane Abbott, Russell Watson, Ruby Turner and David Coulthard to Anton Du Beke, Tom Grennan, Toyah Wilcox and Ricky Wilson. The hugely popular live show has included Bob Harris, Jo Brand, James Acaster, Stephen K Amos, Russ Abbott, Noddy Holder and Chris Difford.
Tom has worked with, and supported, established artists such as Jools Holland, Jamie Cullum, Gregory Porter, Dame Cleo Laine and Hugh Laurie.
Tom was honoured to represent the UK on National Day at the Dubai Expo, performing in front of HRH Prince William solo and with the Coldstream Guards. With a major label behind him, a headline TV Show of his own on Sky, support from blue chip brands, a string of chart hits under his belt – not to mention a smashing album of incredible tracks due for release later this year; Tom Seals is exploding everywhere! He recently exclusively live streamed from Dubai Opera House to Birdland in New York alongside Billy Joel, Sting, Elvis Costello, Whoopi Goldberg and President Clinton!
