Tam first started playing rhythm guitar in a Django Reinhardt cover band,"swing
dynamic' in 1990, 6 years later she left the jazz world to form an oasis cover
band, then switched to her own material. initially called the Butchershop with
ex-go Van Gogh members, the first cd was recorded, also working with leloup
guitarist mark lamb. later 'the vampires' was born with Andrew Nesvadba and
Johnny Graham and a 6 song cd was recorded at Joey's studio in Montreal. Tam
then left to do a small solo tour of manchester, uk,to promote the cd,
performing at night and day, star and garter and of course, the blue cat in
Heaton moor. she dropped off her demos at Peggy Gallagher's house and is
impatiently awaiting support from noel's big brother label.
she soon began tracking down Thurston Moore who defiantly played one of the many
cds she kept throwing at him and he got hooked. He compiled his favorite Tam
tunes in this somewhat retrospective cd. most are originals -- some, like arcade
fires nocarsgo are covers. They all are great.
