Taken from the forthcoming album 'Praise and Blame' – released on 26th July, a remarkable collection of songs that has witnessed critics reaching for superlatives and recently lauded on BBC2's Later (link) and Lauren Laverne's 6Music show, Tom has returned to his roots in creating a truly evocative musical work, aided and abetted by producer / musician Ethan Johns (kings Of Leon, Laura Marling).
