Tom Pomposello was an American roots musician, notably playing and recording with country blues musician Mississippi Fred McDowell, who also worked as a cable television and advertising producer for clients like Nickelodeon, Nick-at-Nite, and MTV. He died in a car accident outside of Kingston, New York in January 1999.
American music didn’t get its start in Huntington, Long Island, and nothing suggests it will die there (or anywhere else). But American music did pass through town so it could shake hands with Honest Tom Pomposello.
Tom’s still shaking.
The music hasn’t stopped, either. In a country where people spread out and grow up so fast you hardly know them, events like Tom’s historic meeting with the music can’t be undervalued. See, people make the music, and we were strewn long before there were any ways to collect what every person is capable of hearing.
Pomposello’s a collector by nature. He likes to shake hands, too. (He earned the name “Honest Tom” during a hometown political campaign. But we’re here to discuss more successful ventures).
Tom knows that the blues got him started. He wanted bottleneck guitar lessons from Mississippi Fred McDowell, but Fred wanted him to be his bass player, apprentice, and friend. Playing night after night with a master Delta bluesman taught Tom more than any teacher. (You can hear them together on Oblivion Records OD-11, Mississippi Fred McDowell: Live in New York).
Over the years, he’s performed on bass guitar with bluesman Louisiana Red, Larry Johnson, Lefty Dizz, and the late Charles Walker. But in recent times, Tom’s mixed in some of the other regional strains of music. He’s added dobro, mandolin, dulcimer, and harmonica to incorporate the traditions of country, Appalachian, rock, rhythm & blues, and city music.
Tom’s first record presents some of the musical friends his winning ways have made him during the past three years. Since American music lives and grows in Tom all the time expect the album to sound very much like Tom’s band today.
