The Offering (BMI)

Thanks for visiting my profile here on SoundClick. I'm Tomas David Hood, a songwriter (BMI), singer, guitarist, and sound engineer.

My musical journey started back around 1973. I've been rather serious since 2007, working hard to increase my playing skills, and honing my songwriting ability. I hope that all of this results in your enjoyment of my music. I add songs as I finish them. It is a slow journey because music is not a full-time occupation.

I appreciate the feedback from other artists, and from listeners, too.

I started playing music in the early 1970's, when I was encouraged to try playing a clarinet in the school "band." That did not work out very well. I ventured into playing an electric guitar about the same time. However, it was not until 1979 that I became dedicated to learning the guitar.

In the 1980's and 1990's, I was a radio DJ and a radio station technician/engineer. I also worked as a sound engineer for live venues, and was part of a musical team, where I played rhythm guitar and occassional drums.

After 2000, I became more dedicated to songwriting. In 2007, I decided to become a professional songwriter as well as a performing artist.

I play a Peavey T-60 electric guitar, and Taylor acoustic/electric guitars. My primary acoustic is the 614ce. I use Line6 and Genz Benz equipment.
