Tom has successfully worked in international markets as a record producer, A&R talent scout and label owner/president since the beginning of his career. With partners including E1 Music and various promotional companies, Tom is in a unique position to help artists by not only producing their recordings, but creating opportunities for their music to be heard on the world stage. With great promotional companies aboard for markets like Germany (3rd largest market in the world), Tom can help create the early buzz and anticipation that is needed for a successful international release.

All music is released on the artist's own label in partnership with Tom's label affiliations with E1 Music.  E1 Music handles digital distribution worldwide, with physical product also being released by E1 partners in most countries. Recently Tom has entered into such partnership agreements with Canadian artists Stone River, Melissa-Bel and Harm. All three artists have successfully launched in Germany and Holland to rave reviews and successful amounts of pre-orders based on the early buzz created by our promotional partners. Each release has been orchestrated with major promotional support and European tours will follow. In the spring of 2010 a Canadian physical release via E1 Music will also happen along with physical releases in other territories.

Tom is also available to provide expertise in local and international booking and other needs as required, including management.
