Tom's music career thus far has encompassed over 300 live dates, including shows at iconic venues including O2 City Hall Newcastle, St David's Hall, Plymouth Pavilions, G Live, The Anvil and Sheffield City Hall. In late 2021 Tom toured the UK with legendary American soul group, The Stylistics, performing with them at 19 shows. Tom writes, records and performs his own songs both solo as Tom Cridland and also with The Tomicks.
As Tom's Elton Tribute, Tom performs all Elton's hits, 100% live, solo or with his band. Tom has an unparalleled love of Elton John's music, rhinestone encrusted tailoring and wearing sunglasses at night. In contrast to most of the modern day music industry, Tom plays with no backing tracks or lip-syncing at all. Indeed as Elton himself put it, "I think everyone who lip-syncs on stage in public when you pay like 75 quid to see them should be shot".
Tom has been booked for public speaking engagements by UCLA, the University of Texas at Austin, Palm Beach Atlantic University, the Universtiy of Bristol, California State University Long Beach, University of St Andrews, Southampton University, Imperial College London, MODA, Pure London, Fortune Brainstorm and on television channels such as CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, the BBC, Sky News and ITV.
