Tom Jenkins hails from the high country of the South Wales Valleys, surrounded by the ex-coal mining communities and rugged landscape where he farms, forms the identity ingrained into the sound of the Pontypridd, Singer Songwriter. After a few years on the road and feeling uninspired by his own music, Jenkins would eventually end up in the outback of New Zealand, to pursue his passion of sheep shearing, Shepherding and ranching.

After returning home to Wales in early 2017, Tom exchanged his new collection of songs with old friend and American Producer Elijah Ford, who insisted that they must make an album together. After a year of planning and with the money he made overseas, Tom and his band headed to Fort Worth, Texas to track his debut album, with the intention of capturing the stories of years gone by into an emotional, modern indie/folk sound, inspired by the authentic production of Country music. With the unique story telling, accompanied by Tom’s dynamic vocal ‘Misery in Comfort’ is a captivating and moving piece of music.
