“Go See Tom!” – Aimsel Ponti, Portland Press Herald
Tom DiMenna is a singer/songwriter based in Maine. He released his debut album, “You Know Me, My Devil Says” in 2020. His review of Cat Stevens gems sold out opera houses along the Maine coast in 2021, and he’s now touring a wider review of story songs from the 1970s, now including Gordon Lightfoot and Harry Chapin.
“I’ve been playing since college, where I was a lowly hand signaler on the football team. Then I played a year of semi-pro football for the Bologna Warriors in Italy. The experience of quarterbacking an Italian Football team was pretty funny. I spent the next decade working on a movie about it.
Along the way, I studied at Second City and various other improv schools in Chicago, L.A., and New York. One of the sketches, where I played the ghost of Telly Savalas doing a lounge act, became an off-broadway show. The show ran for a few years before I relocated with my partner, Lauren, to focus on music in Maine.”
Eddie Holm grew up in various countries around the world, and currently hails from Camden, Maine. His career has involved audio for feature films, as well as sound engineering at the famed Waldo Theater in Waldoboro, Maine. For the last 15 years, he’s been playing bass and guitar in various bands in North Carolina and New England.
