Tom Gee: EP Launch Party

Belfast-based songwriter Tom Gee joins us at The Crescent to launch his long-awaited new EP, Doubting Thomas, with a special full-band performance as part of this year's Sound of Belfast Festival.

Tom returns with his first EP release in more than 10 years. The 5-track EP tackles everything from religion and politics to love, loss and laughter. Rooted in strong melodies and honest lyrics, Tom brings together influences from folk, Americana and blues in his latest release which was produced and recorded at Half-Bap Studios in Belfast. It features a co-write with Eve Belle, a love song to the city of Belfast as well as one all about being told he looks like Jesus.

The EP launch party will be the first time to hear the EP in full with a live band in tow as well!

Through his role as the founder and curator of the Sunflower Sessions, a music night that celebrates original artists and collaboration, Tom has been embraced by the Belfast music community and this show reflects that by having a band consisting of local legends George Sloan, Adam Booth, Sarah McCreedy, M Alexander and Matt McIvor. Expect to laugh, cry or sing. Or all three.

Support on the night comes from Girl For Sale - one of the original Sunflower Sessions performers. A fantastic songwriter and story teller hailing from Tyrone. Other special guests will be announced closer to the time.

This event is BYO so make sure to bring your liquid refreshments on the night!
