Tom Jones compared him to Little Richard. Noddy Holder put him in the top five boogie piano players in the world. Jools Holland, who knows this music better than almost anyone alive, awarded him the Boisdale Boogie Woogie Artist of the Year at the Music Awards and regularly invites him for a duelling pianos session. Tom Seals has played Ronnie Scott’s, Birdland on Broadway, the Blue Note, Glastonbury, Montreux Jazz Festival, Hyde Park supporting Pink Floyd and represented Britain at Expo 2020 Dubai performing solo to 7,000 people with Prince William in the audience. He has a 13-week Sky TV series to his name and performed at the London Palladium in 2025.
For the Christmas lunch he leads his trio through a set that moves between boogie woogie classics and festive singalongs without losing the thread. “Great Balls of Fire” and “Blueberry Hill” sit alongside “Jingle Bell Rock”, “Winter Wonderland”, “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree” and “Let It Snow”, all played with the wit, warmth and piano technique that make a Tom Seals show work in a room full of people who came for lunch and stayed for the music.
