Tom Mackell - Shitbag [Music Review] May 17, 2024 by Travis Erwin in Music, Indie Pop, Alternative, Pop Rating: 4 out of 5 “Pure unadulterated fun! Tom Mackell has a good time calling out his own behavior, and the honesty, along with his emotive delivery sells the track with ease. The melody is light and the tempo carries the listener along like a nice summer breeze. This is a good little everyman kind of ditty, that will stick in your head long after the final note. ” — Travis Erwin ~ LA on Lock Blogger
Tom Mackell - Gone [Review] August 26, 2021 by Travis Erwin in Music, Singer/Songwriter, Alternative, Americana Rating: 4 out of 5 “Tom Mackell honors his mother and all of those who touch our lives and are ‘Gone’ far too early. The emotive track serves as a good reminder without dipping into the morose or forced sentimentality. The track has an Americana vibe and for those not familiar of with the genre think of Springsteen and Petty with a dash of bluesy country to the overall sound. This is simply a well-written and meaningful song delivered with heart.” — Travis Erwin ~ LA on Lock Blogger
