notes

Tom was born in Norwalk, Connecticut but has lived in California and Maryland, eventually finding his way back to Connecticut where he lives with his wife, Sue, and their three dogs, Buster, Bettie, and Buffy. Tom has always loved music, and played the trumpet as a child. It wasn't until Tom picked up a guitar in college that he found his true calling - music.

Tom has over fifteen years experience in early-childhood education. He began his career as an aide while he was still in high school. Tom progressed from aide to head teacher to music specialist, and is now performing his music full-time.

In addition to performing with his band, the Tic-Tac-Toes at concerts, Tom visits many schools, libraries, and camps on a regular basis. Tom's repertoire includes original songs that he has written with his wife, Sue, an eigth-grade math teacher, as well as traditional favorites.

Tom's music is very interactive and is intended to get children moving, singing,laughing, dancing, and having lots of good old-fashioned fun!

Parents say that Tom's music is never saccharine or preachy. While kids love to listen to Tom sing about his dirty room or about creatures under the sea, their parents love to listen to music that does not talk down to their kids (or to them)! One parent told Tom, “your music is the only kids' music that I don't get sick of hearing over and over again!”

Tom's first release, “I Like Being a Kid” won a Parents' Choice award and his second release, "Moving Along" is currently being considered for a Parents' Choice Award. Tom Weber has been featured on television and in numerous newspapers and magazines, including Parenting Magazines List of Great New Kids' Music. Below are just some of the reviews Tom has received:

From Nashville Parent-
My kids and I love listening to music while tooling around in the car together, and when we first heard Tom Weber's cut of "Five Little Monkeys," we shared lots of laughs, too. He pretends to be the mischievous chimps making fun of the alligator in sneering nah-nah-nah-nah-nah fashion until snap! The alligator chomps them down one by one. This playfulness is found throughout Weber's award-winning album where first-rate musicality abounds in original songs like
"Say My Letters," "Sunny Days" and "Coloring Book." If you're looking for children's music that's fun, appealing and new, lend your ears to Tom Weber's "I Like Being A Kid."

Reviewer: A music fan from Stamford, Connecticut
This CD is excellent. My whole family, as well as all of the children who come to my family day care sing these songs constantly. This is not your typical syrupy sweet kids CD. It is fun, catchy and enjoyable, even to mom and dad.

Reviewer: from Stamford, CT-
My family was introduced to the music of Tom Weber because he performs at my daughters pre-school on a monthly basis. I bought the CD because my daughter LOVES Mr. Tom and was pleasantly surprised. We all love this CD. I catch the whole family singing the songs . I also own my own day care center and all of the parents and kids love this CD, too. Definitely not your average syrupy sweet children's CD. Fun and enjoyable!
