Tom is the Head Of A&R at Fanbace, a global modern day merchandise platform. Fanbace utilises best in class tech to maximise revenue growth for artists and partners of all sizes, combining Print on Demand to de-risk merchandise and data driven volume stock to increase profits.
Starting in bands in 2009, Tom toured internationally, released critically acclaimed albums and was nominated for numerous awards. With a passion that the artist is always put first and with DIY at his core, Tom started his own music management company Kings Agency (now Common Outcast) in 2014 and continues this work today as owner / artist manager currently representing Mimi Barks, Roam, Kid Bookie and more. Tom has also worked as a consultant for Frank Carter & The Rattlesnakes, drawing on his expertise and experience in growing artists from the ground up. As The Rattlesnakes started to become one of the most exciting bands in the British Punk scene, he worked alongside ATC management to grow their touring and ecommerce merchandise business. Becoming part of the initial team at Fanbace at its inception in 2021 was a natural progression for him. The principle values of democratizing merchandise whilst using tech and data to leverage an artists brand; was a perfect fit for Tom’s key ethos of supporting artists at all levels to utilise and maximise their opportunities.
