Tom Monahan’s passage into so many genres of music is obviously influenced from his nomadic life.

As a child, singer-songwriter, artist, designer and performer, he has travelled from the West Coast of the USA to the coffee houses of Amsterdam, and now resides in Chester.

A seasoned performer in many bands over many years and fully in control of his career, he has been producing his own music in the studio he built on his rural property in Cheshire.

Tom and his brother Mike have been writing and recording original music for 25 years from the North West of England to the bright lights of Las Vegas, Nevada to the dizzy heights of their cabin in Utah.

He will be performing during the Chester Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival in The Leverhulme Suite at Chester Racecourse on April 20.
