Description:
Tommy Webb is from Langley, Kentucky. Located in Floyd County, near the
well-known Highway Rt. 23 that so many award winning country and bluegrass
music artists have originated. This is the area he calls home. Tommy started
singing and playing guitar when he was 15 years old in jam sessions with
some buddies up the hollow where he lives. Out of high school he started
playing with a group called The Pine Top Ramblers, later performing with
South Creek, and then played for several years with another group called
Onlyne. He also performed with Clyde Bowling and the Southern Bluegrass Boys
before starting The Tommy Webb Band in 2005. Tommy sings lead, tenor, and
guitar is his main instrument, but for an eager crowd he will always pull
out the old time claw hammer banjo to give the audience their money's worth.
He's also writes a lot of songs, and has written several on his latest
projects, Eastern Kentucky and Now That You Are Gone. Tommy sings every
Sunday in the local church and he loves fishing, hunting, and playing
basketball with his son Justin.
