London-based producer, singer and songwriter Tom Misch seamlessly blends hip-hop rhythms with soulful vocals and stirring guitar riffs... We suggest delving into the musician's biography and getting to know his unique genius!
Biography of the musician
Tom Misch grew up in a home where creativity was encouraged. His parents, an artist and a psychiatrist, knew from an early age that their son would become a musician. One day Tom came home from school, called the whole family into the living room and gave an exciting performance of Patrick Watson's "Man Like You". Not every child is interested in this kind of music!
Tom's musical career began at the tender age of four. At that time, he already knew how to play the violin, which certainly delighted everyone... At the age of nine, he was really into playing the guitar! Tom literally never let the six-stringed instrument out of his hands, which he later recalled:
"I spent all my free time playing chords and layers! This period whetted my appetite... While still at school, I firmly decided for myself that I wanted to connect my life with creating beats and producing music..."
While in primary school Tom was inspired by rock bands such as Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Nirvana, as a teenager he discovered hip-hop music with its dynamic beats and colourful lyrics! His idol was rapper J Dilla, whose music helped Tom to form his own unique style.
First success
Tom succinctly mixed guitar parts with neo-soul and J Dilla style, and put them through his own music blender! This is how the 17 year old kid from London started recording his first house beats. Tom posted the tracks on the online platform SoundCloud. One of the records attracted the attention of an influential Berlin beatmaker, and he shared it... And then everything was as usual: the repost was followed by a surge of widespread public interest in the work of Tom Misch. And now our hero is already working with a young London band, whose members share his sensitive, soulful, deeply melodic and emotional approach to music.
Musical career
Soon Tom's music began to be in demand in the circles of young rappers. Already in 2014, Mish released a mini-album Out to Sea, recorded not without the help of singer Carmody. In the same year, Beat Tape 1, a collection of instrumental tracks, was released. The record Dilla Love was a kind of tribute to his idol... In July, Tom released his debut single titled Memory.
In 2016, the album Reverie was released. Here Tom mixed different styles with hip-hop and pop music, and even took on lead vocals in a few tracks!
In 2017, a mini-album called Mischon was released. The record included only 5 tracks recorded in 5 days. The same Carmody, Will Herd, saxophonist Kaidi Akinnibi, Toby Tripp took part in the recording... In the same year Tom recorded with Ben Coyle Larner the single "Damselfly".
In 2018, Tom Misch released his debut full-length album Geography with the singles "Movie" and "Lost in Paris".
Music videos
Not too long ago, Tom collaborated with Michael Kiwanuka (Michael Kiwanuka) with whom they made a cool music video:
Probably by early 2020, the most popular song by a musician is - It Runs Through Me.
The music video for the song "Nightrider" (& Yussef Dayes) is popular among YouTube users,...
And also the music video for the song "Kiev"!
As for the personal life of the musician, it is classified. Tom Misch does not like to give interviews, explaining it very simply:
"I'm not a talker. I'm here to make music! People know me, my music, and that's enough."
