Singer/songwriter, poet, performer (and now podcast host!), this episode focuses on me, Thomas Kam.
Beginning as a classical and jazz pianist, I first started songwriting when I began to set my poems to music. After school, I briefly studied at Oxford before leaving to become a musician. In 2017, I was diagnosed with leukaemia and spent 6 months in isolation, during which songwriting became essential to survival. These experiences made me realise the capacity of music to give meaning to our lives, and to help us through hard times. The track I’ll be playing is “Call Me When You’re Falling Down”, an anthem about friendship and the healing power of music.
