Jwheels Presents Tom 2.0 Live from Nashville Music Row @ 6PM PST


Tom 2.0
FUN. If there's one word that is constantly heard when people talk about Tom 2.0's shows, it is that word: FUN. Aside from the many "off the beaten path" song selections and the innuendo-laden banter between singer and audience, the energy and excitement itself is infectious at a 2.0 show. Primarily covering tunes from the 50's to modern day songs, Tom does sprinkle in a helping of original tunes, most notably his SL inspired song,"I Don't Need Your Drama".
