Tom Hemby is a highly respected touring and studio guitarist based in Nashville, TN. His hard work, talent, and versatility equipped him to work with Amy Grant, Vince Gill and Wynonna on the road, and musical icons Michael McDonald, Cliff Richard, Glen Campbell, Kenny Loggins, Peter Cetera, and many others in the studio. In our Truetone Lounge interview, we tell his story from rural Missouri to stages and studios across the globe. Additionally, Tom graciously shares some golden advice for the aspiring musician, and talks about his jazz/fusion band that includes drumming legend Keith Carlock. Hemby also talks gear, and demonstrates his pedal board and his two favorite guitars, a 90’s Custom Shop Fender Stratocaster, and a vintage 1959 Gibson ES-355.
