BIOGRAPHY

'The Tom Ivey band plays music that makes you want to get out of your chair and bust a groove.' - Nomoredivision.com

The Tom Ivey Band is:

​

Tom Ivey- Guitar, Vox

Mark Stow - Guitar

Micheal Broaders - Bass

Dan Kendall - Drums

​

Formed in late 2014 from the ashes of several of Oxford's long running rock groups the Tom Ivey Band came together through a combined love of loud live music, classic New Orleans funk, Rock and Roll and a liberal splash of alcoholic beverages. The last two years has seen the band honing their show at clubs, pubs and festivals, developing into the foot stomping live act they are today.

​

Tom's first album Towers Of Silence was self released just before the groups formation, but the guys hit Soundworks Studio in Oxford and with help from a huge number of friendly artists, musicians, promoters, events organisers and fans of Rock'n'Roll the new album Green Fever was released in June 2016.

​

2017 was a great year capped off with a show at the O2 Academy in Oxford!
