Blue Tunes Recommended -

Thomas Bartlett: August 28th - August 3rd

American pianist/producer Thomas Bartlett is best known to us as a key component of The Gloaming. His many other projects include music under the moniker Doveman as well as collaborations with artists like The National, Antony and the Johnsons, Bebel Gilberto and more.
