Tom Robinson

Coming from a family where everyone was in the local band, whose grandfather mastered several instruments and whose father did the same, it was a "given" that Tom (the youngest of five), would become a musician as well. At the age of nine, Tom was a bandsman and by age fourteen, he was competing with a pipe band in Scotland. Tom's passion has always been drumming, While competing in pipe band championships throughout North America and Scotland, he also studied jazz.
Tom has toured with pipe bands bearing the names MacNish, Glenmore, the 78TH Fraser Highlanders and in 1990, became the lead drummer for the St. Thomas Police Pipe Band (considered one of the top bands in Canada). His proficiency in drumming won him the 1993 Champion Supreme award for Scottish drumming, Following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather, Tom became proficient in bagpipe and traditional Celtic instruments, which he taught, in addition to drums. His founding membership in the group Celtic Offspring, has brought him into contact with major recording artists and expanded opportunities in the field of music production.
