TOM MORAN's BIO...
For singer and songwriter Tom Moran, music has "been an itch" since he was in his teens. Now, Moran is debuting his first album, "Starting Over," a tribute to the power of sobriety and second chances.
A Brooklyn, New York native, Moran says he first picked up the guitar as a kid, spending his days perfecting his craft. It wasn't long before Moran began testing out his vocal abilities with the encouragement of singers in the family. Fast forward two decades later and Moran continues to be a music force that reflects the sentiments of his upbringing as he plays at local neighborhood bars and venues across Brooklyn.
On the relentless advice of fans and friends, Moran made his way into the recording studio and cut his first album. "Starting Over" reveals the story of an underdog gone good, and a man learning to recognize that positive gains can be made through difficult and painful times. "It's about the average person trying to get through the hardships of life and coming out the other side a better person," says Moran.
An eclectic mix of rock, country, grassroots and a hint of blues, Moran's fan base is made up of teenagers, working class people, and friends of bill's, who share a message of love and hope for the future. Tracks of note include "Help Me Baby", "Into The Sun", "I Would Drink", "Small Record Deal", and "Starting Over".
Moran admits icons including John Mellencamp, Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen have provided the inspiration for much of the album. It doesn't hurt that reviewers have compared his smoky vocals to the likes of Keth Richards and Bob Dylan.
When he's not making music, Moran flexes his muscles as a physical education teacher and a family man.

WORDS AND MUSIC - REAL AS IT GETS!!!
author: Sammy JI believe I am the most credible analyst of Toms Music "starting Over"- why? because I have known Tom throughout his music career which dates back atleast twenty years! Although I may not always applaud his word selection or riveting chord patterns, I have to commend Tom on one thing from the start, he has always kept it real."Starting Over" as all his music, is heartfelt and sincere with simple and clear messages. There is absolutely nothing pretentious about him or his music. As an obsessive perfectionist, I feel he can do better, but that is not a critique, rather it is a tribute to his potential. So this CD is well worth the bucks, so BUY, BUY, BUY. I am going to buy one right now (although he gave me one for free)!!
- author: Michael K (Tom's Cousin)
Loved it!!!!!!!!! In fact after listening to the music I decided it's time to stop living a lie and let the truth come out. Tom's music has given me the confidence to come out of the closet and admit that I am gay. Thank you Tom.
YOU GO TOM!!
