Info for Burning Bright
Tom McClung's piano style displays a broad spectrum of musical and emotional colors. Whether playing blistering bebop, sizzling salsa, down-home blues, pastoral folk or avant-garde, McClung’s expressive touch and vivid imagination present a unique and exciting musical experience for all who listen.
Born in New York in 1957 and later moving to western Massachusetts, McClung quickly established himself as an important force in the New England music scene. His sensitivity and musicianship kept him in-demand as a sideman for a wide variety of bands, as well as accompanist for the region’s leading vocalists. Visiting artists such as Bobby McFerrin, Aaron Neville, James Cotton and Bo Diddley would call on McClung when they were in town. As word of McClung’s talent started to spread, musical luminaries such as Marion Brown, Yusef Lateef, and Archie Shepp began to take notice and employed him for concerts, tours and recordings. Soon he was on the international stage, playing festivals and concerts in Europe, Australia, South America, and throughout the United States.
Now resident in Paris, McClung presents his new album on fellow ex-pat Archie Shepp's label, Archieball.
