Tom Letson is a musician and visual artist blending rich storytelling with raw authenticity inspired by a life on the road. From riding freight trains and hitchhiking across the U.S. to living remotely in Alaska his alternative lifestyle fuels his evocative songwriting that resonates with anyone who’s ever chased freedom and found meaning in life’s untamed moments. Known for his skillful fingerpicking bottleneck slide and clawhammer banjo Letson’s music echoes the sounds of Old-Time Appalachia and the Pre-War Blues. Now performing alongside his brother Justin under Tom Letson & The Letdown the duo has been captivating audiences across North America with their gritty heartfelt sound. Their debut album There's a Hole in My Head Where My Brain Used to Be consists of nearly a decade's worth of previously unreleased material recorded over 6 days in a Portland studio.“Rootsy musical forms are the crux of Tom Letson and the Letdown. Americana ramblers bluesy shufflers country twangers and folk wanderers that leap out of the jukebox and along Americana highways of sound.” - Aldora Britain Records
