Tomos Eames, hailing from the lively and diverse streets of Cardiff, is quickly emerging as a rising name in the indie folk and blues scene. Known for igniting the atmosphere at Camden’s blues bars with his sets, Eames’ musical style is an intriguing fusion of raw bluesy intensity and the earthy, organic sounds of indie folk. His lyrical storytelling, rich with evocative imagery, brings to mind the brooding allure of Nick Cave, yet it's laced with a uniquely Welsh soul, setting him apart as a compelling voice in modern music.

The track “Black on The Other Side” showcases his profound ability to transform personal grief into a moving artistic expression. This hauntingly beautiful piece, steeped in the somber tones of dark Americana, serves as a heartfelt tribute to his late father. It plunges deep into the enigmatic realms of mortality, death, and the uncertain journey beyond. The song's atmosphere is one of poignant melancholy, yet it is interwoven with a sense of serene acceptance and an almost mystical euphoria, capturing the bittersweet essence of memory and loss.

Rooted in the bustling, often gritty surroundings of Cardiff, Eames developed a sound that reflects the city's contrasting energies. His forthcoming EP, “EDGES,” is set to encapsulate this duality, painting a sonic picture of urban life’s raw, unpolished reality contrasted against the intoxicating escapism of weekend reveries. In Eames’ words, the track is an exploration of life’s unending rhythms, heavily influenced by the enduring wisdom and vivid memories of his father, reminding us all that life, with its highs and lows, is a wave we must learn to navigate.
