Album Description"Without much effort, Tommy and the Whale strike upon a winning combination--a ramshackle blend of music-hall pop and bluesy, piano-based rock." -- All the Rage Three years ago, Tommy Hans left his native Florida (and former band Arkitekt) to start a new musical journey in Nashville. What began as a solo project soon turned into a "whale," with the addition of four players who helped write and record Shot for the Moon. With Hans' piano at the core, the pop gems that comprise this debut flourish with Americana-tinged accordion, lap steel, and brass arrangements.
