“I love playing music because it is the universal language of the heart.” – Tom MacDonald

Singer songwriter Tom MacDonald has been a professional musician for over 40 years. It started when his family relocated to Brazil in the 1960s and Tom’s dad bought him his first guitar. Being self-taught he formed his first band while in high school incorporating some of the Brazilian rhythms beating all around him. Once back in the States he continued performing solo and with different groups. Opening up for Three Dog Night, Norton Buffalo, Maria Muldaur, David Lindley and Crosby, Stills & Nash with his group Matinee Forever, he then formed The Pleasure Addicts creating a jazz infused sound. He rock & rolled the next 20 years with Buck Love & The Humperheads and now is currently playing in two duos, The Nut Boyz and Tom MacDonald & Tony Unger. Over the years he has developed a bold percussive picking style with a strong rhythmic sense. Tom plays local venues and throughout the upper western states.
