Tom Dibb
Whether you're watching Tom Dibb solo or with band, get set for a beautifully gutsy performance, as he tells his stories with undertones of blues, roots and folk, grown through a forest of soaring acoustic goodness.
Now with two full length albums under his belt, and a third in the making, Tom has found his sound set firmly with an ever growing, loyal fan base that follow him not only across his home turf in the UK, but also across the Globe. Tom's world tour and self drive expedition in his 1989 vw campervan all the way from the UK to Australia in 2016, lay the foundations and inspiration for much of his material. It fits into mainstream molds, yet also satisfies a deeper creative taste.

Biography
Slough born singer songwriter and camper van dweller Tom Dibb defines the title ‘Touring Artist’. Based at Bedfordshire's Grand Chapel Studios since his epic musical adventure that took Tom from London to Melbourne overland, the musician has released 2 LP’s and continues to write and record in between stints on the road.
Tom has successfully spread his music far and wide with a very organic style, playing and singing at every opportunity from street corners and living rooms, to full band gigs on big stages. A love for his trade means his sights are set on 'keeping it real' while achieving as much as he can.
Alongside happily performing on any given stage, Tom and his ‘CamperVan Live Lounge’ (a self contained festival stage from the side of his VW Bus) have become a favourite hangout on the festival circuit and gained endorsement from Bose Professional
Previous gigs include support spots for the Hoosiers, Reef, & Finlay Quaye among other well known Artists. Sell out shows and French Alpine Tours since 2019 have created a stir amongst his followers, and his latest album 'Tracks', recorded at Grand Chapel Studios is gaining acclaimed attention.
2024 will see Tom take to the road again, sharing songs on the festival circuit from his own Camper van stage amongst others, and the release of his 3rd LP
Tom’s influences include the John Butler Trio, Tracy Chapman, and Counting Crows, and he has been compared with Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, Newton Faulkner and Bedouin Soundclash though with a distinctive alt-country edge.
