Tom Cox is a musician and songmaker based in Chicago, IL. He got his start drumming in the battered dive bars in his hometown of Dayton, OH before spending years in Austin, TX where he played in a smattering of bands on the dreamier and psychedelic side. Having been a drummer in most of his prior projects, he took some time away to develop his songwriting and recording style and built a home studio. He put roots down in Chicago and finished his first album, Modal Fixture.
His music iterates on the 70’s songwriter forms with a garage rock interpretation, arranged with a specific blend of atmosphere and immediacy.
He'll be out and about performing around Chicago and the greater Midwest in the months to come. His priorities include dogs, Lake Michigan, old Wurlitzers, and Neil Young's Zuma.
