GRAMMY award-winning Tom Waits, born Thomas Alan Waits on December 7, 1949, is an iconic American singer-songwriter, musician, and actor known for his distinctive gravelly voice, eclectic musical style, and vivid storytelling in his lyrics.

Waits was born and raised in a middle-class family in Pomona, California. Inspired by the work of Bob Dylan and the Beat Generation, he began singing on the San Diego folk circuit.

In 1972, he relocated to Los Angeles, where he worked as a songwriter before signing a recording contract with Asylum Records.

In 1973, he released his debut album, “Closing Time“. This album introduced audiences to his unique blend of jazz, blues, and folk influences, and set the stage for a career marked by experimentation and boundary-pushing. Over the years, Waits has released numerous critically acclaimed albums, including “Rain Dogs” (1985), “Swordfishtrombones” (1983), and “Bone Machine” (1992), each showcasing his evolving musical style and lyrical prowess.

Waits’ music is characterized by its gritty, often cinematic quality, with themes ranging from love and loneliness to the underbelly of society. His distinctive voice, which has been described as sounding like “it was soaked in a vat of bourbon, left hanging in the smokehouse for a few months, and then taken outside and run over with a car,” adds depth and emotion to his storytelling.
