Tom Kidam

Bio:

Tom Kidam’s universe, inspired by numerous eclectic influences such as Patrick Phelan,,No-Man, Pj Harvey,Scott Walker,Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Radiohead or Alain Bashung. His style varies between airy and sometimes sharper sounds.

The project is born in mid-2008. After one year of musical search during which he records a series of demos at home, Tom (writer and composer), decides to look for other musicians who will soon join to form what he calls the « Kidam » - a platform which is the basis for his project « live ». Amongst them you can find Nathalie Thys (drums) and Frédérick Sanchez (bass) with who he is currently arranging his compositions.
