There he finds the musicians to realize his music projects as "Tommy Blue's Friends". The goal for CD projects was to bring original high quality music in the world and on stage with different musicians without much rehearsal. The basis for this is a rich song repertoire that Tommy has created since the seventies until today with a lot of love and creativity.
The CD "Rocket Science" was produced in the first half 2013. "Rocket Science" is a song trilogy about working and living in an environment conducting fundamental physics research. This covers corporative aspects "Rocket Science", computer services "3rd Level SysAdmin" and personal experiences "I'Man". All songs are presented in a fresh mixture of country blues with rocking elements and a touch of humor.
The production of the CD "Blue # 2" was launched in late 2013 in a studio in Ann Arbor / Michigan. The album "Blue # 2" is pure blues. The songs tell stories of life and death, of love and pain. The music of seventeen musicians from Hamburg and the world is shaped by Tommy for a personal expression of authentic blues music. It is a rich mixture of styles of different musicians associated with special vocal parts that maybe write rock and blues history. In the spring of 2016 there was a big release concert on the Treibsand-Festival Lübeck.
