2:00 pm – Tom Hall
One of the most respected singer/songwriters in the Midwest, Tom’s self-titled debut album on Enneagram Records showcases his remarkable voice and eclectic songwriting ability. Slice-of-life lyrics and extraordinary bluesy vocals set Tom apart from his peers and expose him as a master of musical styles.

“With the heart of a hobo and the gritty, aching crooning of a seasoned, veteran professional, he sounds like a combination of Springsteen, Johnny Rivers and Ray Charles.”

When you’re shopping for new microphones, you’ll encounter a range of different types of microphones spanning a vast range of prices.
