Here is a little about myself:
TOM TRIPP's love for country music can be traced back to his growing up on a small Kansas dirt farm.
Tom was the youngest of seven children.
His father was a storyteller (as his father was, and his father before him). Tom's father and mother both worked hard to keep their family fed.
At the end of a long day, his father would sit next to the old coal-burning stove and tell stories about growing up in the coalfields of southeast Kansas, and of his many adventures in life.
Tom learned the art of storytelling at an early age in life, and it can be heard in the stories and songs he writes today.
Tom has traveled across every state in the USA but two... Alaska and Hawaii. When asked why he hasn't visited those states yet, Tom just smiles and says: "I always leave the best for last, and my life is far from over."
Tom has looked down upon this old earth from the top of the Rocky Mountains.
He has watched the sun rise and set over two oceans.
He has traveled through the hot desert and walked upon the frozen ponds of the northland, but he has always returned to Kansas... the place where he hangs his hat to this day.
Tom Tripp is the proud parent of 4 grown children , Jason , Chris , Nicole and Gina and a Grandfather of 4.
