Tom Andes

  • Trident Booksellers & Cafe 940 pearl street Boulder, CO 80302 USA (map)

For nearly a decade in New Orleans, Americana singer/songwriter Tom Andes has been delighting audiences with his stories of love and loss. His sound draws from influences including Delta blues, traditional country, Western swing, and gospel, his baritone voice and cinematic lyrics taking the listener into scenes from the lives of the down-and-outsand dreamers who populate his songs.

Tom’s two EPs, “Static on Every Station” and “Those LA Nights,” received acclaim in Offbeat and airplay on legendary New Orleans community radio station WWOZ. In February 2025, Southern Crescent Recording Co. re-released both EPs on vinyl underthe title The Ones That Brought You Home. Tom is also a prize-winning fiction writer, with a detective novel, Wait There Till You Hear from Me, forthcoming from Crescent City Books in 2025. His stories have appeared in Best American Mystery Stories 2012, Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine, and Santa Monica Review. A born storyteller adept at playing small, intimate rooms as a solo act and rocking out with a full band, Tom plays his own songs and covers favorites by everyone from Prince to Dolly Parton. His latest project, Tom Andes and Delta Stomp, combines those New Orleans roots with the sights, stories, and sounds of his new home, New Mexico, and is sure to get folks on their feet and out on the dance floor. He also tours as a solo performer.
