5 minutes until #asktom
Growing up in a small town! It probably set the tone for a lot of future Keane songs...
Plans, yes. But I think (like everyone else) that we just have to take it a day at a time for now. Obviously we’ll let you know as soon as we have concrete information...
I’d like to think I’m getting better at most of the things I enjoy. So maybe I’ll be like a jollier version of Nick Cave...😜
The self-isolation has been a great opportunity to start writing again. So a new TC solo album is certainly a possibility at some point...
I often get a sense of frustration when I’ve had a few days at home because I don’t feel I’ve done all the things I wanted to. So this has really been a great chance to write songs, exercise, spend time with the family, cook, reflect, read. The list goes on...
New Caribou record is great.
There are no rules. Some gigs a song will just speak to you more or you’ll sing it really well and in come the chills...Try Again is quite reliable!
I went to the Prado last year...the Goya black paintings are just beyond amazing.
The first few shows of a tour normally require a lot of warming up. Once the tour is up and running, my voice doesn’t need much preparation. I’m very lucky!
Roast lunch or paella...
Ha, not yet! I’d love to know for sure if I had it...first out of curiosity but also so I could go and see my parents, who are over 70 and in that higher risk group!
Mainly the other members of Keane chiming in with suggestions. 😂
I’ll level with you - I’ve got a little studio, a lovely garden, a gym and a swimming pool, so it’s quite hard to choose.
Playing loads of games of family Uno. My daughter is really good at it. Really fun.
Stoner...and it’s not about smoking dope fyi.
The River or See It So Clear...
Not hard, just a pleasure, albeit a sad one...that’s the odd contradiction about singing Keane songs.
I just love to be a trailblazer for things that go badly out of fashion.
When the golf courses open again. 🤭
You’re Not Home. I’ve never felt like I’m gonna screw up a song as often as I do with that one...and we always open with it, which adds to the feeling of abject terror.
Surely that’s some kind of mistake. Is there another Tom doing a Coronavirus briefing or something??
Look, I love Brighton and the people of Brighton, but the Brighton Centre is very strange. It’s too wide at the sides and too squat from front to back. Last show there was the best so far though!!
The dog is residing at my parents’ house at the moment. My Dad loves her, so it gives him a reason to get out on long walks!!
Lima. It was ridiculous.
Ahh, The Notebook was lovely.
Scotland is very reliable!
Happy Birthday. Cherish those 30s, they go super fast...and then suddenly you hit a worrying crossroads.
Last couple of questions now...

I just watched Unorthodox on Netflix. Great miniseries.
Ok, last question, so THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!

I really loved Inception.

See ya, take care. Lots of love. Tc xxx

Apart from being a musician, I’ve been lucky enough to work a lot of different jobs in the live music industry. From production assistant to backline tech and from sound engineer to tour manager.
Let me tell you, it can be seriously hard work. I remember jobs where we started at 5am and finished at 6am the following day.
Here’s the thing though, the shows that come from that hard work bring real joy to millions of people AND bring serious money into the economy (£5.2 billion in 2019 in the UK).

Earlier this summer we were proud to join members of the UK music community in lending our names to the Let The Music Play campaign, which significantly influenced the culture package that was announced just days later by our government.
Today we want to acknowledge once again the scale of the jobs and companies that make up the UK music industry that need urgent help - it is vital that whilst the government is deciding the distribution mechanism for the fund they understand this.
We could not do our jobs without the hard work of the members of our team, from our crew on the road, to our management, agents, promoters, record label, publishers, producers, and beyond.

It’s exactly 8 years since Strangeland came out. We all love that album - you might have noticed that songs from Strangeland tend to make up a large proportion of a Keane setlist! (1/4)
Sovereign Light Cafe is probably the song that represents the album best, rooted as it is in the seaside towns where we grew up, and the day we spent making Lindy Haymann’s video for that song was pretty special. (2/4)
We shot the video in Bexhill and it features striking cameos from many local community groups. It must be tough for community groups like these not being able to meet up and share their passions at the moment, so we’re thinking of them and sending lots of love. (3/4)

This is the kind of question I’m talking about! Err, Razzmatazz in Barcelona is a cracking venue but the toilets are where Coronavirus first spread to human beings.
He’s like Phil Collins, one day he’s gonna rise from those drums and steal my job.
I find it gives me some traction when we’re making love.

It’s hard to believe that our album #CauseandEffect was released just over six months ago, on 20th September! That same day we played a sold out homecoming gig at The De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill, an evening we will never forget at one of our favourite venues. Image
During this difficult time, please do whatever you can to support your local independent venues. They are a vital part of what makes the live music industry so special. Over the next few weeks, we will be unveiling videos from the concert to share with you all.
The first of these will be #Phases, premiering tomorrow at 5pm BST.
