More than anything else, Tom Sheehan is a writer. His stories embrace themes and subjects that are not in the
mainstream, per se. Rather, his are songs that explore the fringes and darker corners of popular music. Critics
have said that Tom Sheehan is to popular music what Oliver Stone is to film. That’s probably fairly accurate.

Tom’s work has evolved over the years. The subjects are still deeper and more thought-provoking that most of pop
music, but the narratives have become more deeply rooted in an experience that can only come by living life.

The proof, for better or worse, is in the lyrics. And the songs.
