Ten Lucky Pennies
Editorial Reviews
Product Description
From the San Francisco Bay area, singer-songwriter Tom Payne works as in-house carpenter at Genentech. Payne's songs are Socratic, gentle, often sentimental, occasionally playful, serious without pretension. A strong natural singing voice and accomplished, flowing guitar style place Tom's work firmly in the folk tradition, but with a distinctly urban perspective.
"The Grapes of Wrath-like landscape is not bleak, because Payne finds the kernel of peace and beauty in each person in his songs, and treats them with respect and humor."

Not well know but well worth your time.......2004-02-26
If you enjoy singer-songwriter folk music then you will probably enjoey Tom Payne. He has a wonderful voice and in "Ten Lucky Pennies" presents a great collection of songs that range from the very personal to small stories from everyday life. Payne reminds me a little of a modern Gordon Lightfoot (but then I am Canadian) with a touch of Leonard Cohen. I'm always on the look out for good artist, known or unknown and Payne is one of my favorite finds. Well worth your time to take a chance on something a little less conventional.
