Shuga T

Based in Denver Colorado, Tommy is an aspiring artist working primarily on the Hammond organ. At home in his studio, the concept of Shuga T was born through explorations in using reel to reel tape machines to record vintage keyboard instruments along with guitars and drums.

In 2014 Tommy graduated with a BA from Rollins College in Winter Park, Fl. While attending his focus in studies was jazz guitar, although he participated in the orchestra as a cellist and practiced organ and piano on the side. In addition to taking part in a variety of ensembles and working as a guitarist in clubs on weekends, he also was a member of the Rollins waterski team.

Working as an organist/keyboardist, Tommy has toured and worked with artists such as Roosevelt Collier, Eddie Roberts, Blaque Dynamite, and Joe Marcinek. On the road with Roosevelt he has performed on 4 different continents and participated in esteemed festivals such as WOMEX (World Music Exchange) and Montreux Jazz Festival.
