Tom McBrien
A Side ‘The Seed’
B Side ‘Mogul’
Exclusive 7” Vinyl release - subscribe in the bio.
Tom McBrien is a London-based pianist and composer, known to many as the quietly magnetic presence behind the keys in SHOLTO’s ever-shifting live lineups over the past year.
His debut release pairs A-side “The Seed” with B-side “Mogul”—two deeply reflective compositions that sit somewhere between the lyrical intimacy of Bill Evans and the cinematic tension of Jonny Greenwood. Mesmerizing and romantic, these pieces feel perfectly timed for the threshold between an ending year and a beginning one.
The record showcases a new generation of London musicians, with Dave Bardon and Oscar “SHOLTO” Robertson producing while also contributing bass & drums respectively. Rachel Kitchlew sits at harp, alongside appearances from Finn Rees, and string work from Abigail Adams, Meg Ella Brookes, and Giovanni Cresseri double bass. Tom McBrien – Piano
