Hey there! How are you? Me?  WOW, what a great few weeks it's been!!  Where do I start?   Well, I guess I'll first start with my full-length concert performance at Summerfest in Milwaukee.  At what is billed as The World's Largest Music Festival, my great band and I rocked it down before thousands, opening right before Loverboy.  

I played many of my fan favorites, plus some of the new songs from my upcoming album called "Waterfall" that will be out this Fall.  I was also honored to be featured on different billboards in Chicago and Milwaukee promoting my appearance at Summerfest!  

One of the best parts of doing what I do is meeting new people. I had the chance after my Summerfest gig to meet many new fans.  One I want to give a special shout-out to is named Kyle, a 13 year old who was cheering me and the band on throughout our show.  I personally want to thank Kyle and his Dad for being there and for all their wonderful support!  Also, Kyle has his own band called Screaming In the Cul de Sac and I want to wish him all the best in his musical endeavors, and in life.  

At Summerfest, I also played my new single Doin' Nothin', which is becoming a major Summer 2019 hit!  Within the last few weeks, Doin' Nothin' has been gaining airplay on various radio stations across the country and has exploded into the Top 5 from #22 on the "What’s In Store Music" chart with over 95,000 plays this past week!  

Doin' Nothin' has only been on that music system for two weeks and already is near the top of the charts.  I am very proud of that as well as seeing these radio chart media reports: Tom Fuller's “Doin’ Nothin’” – Breaks into the Mediabase Mainstream chart Top 50 at 47. Tom Fuller is Top 5 on the Mediabase Mainstream Independent Artist rankings, moving up this week from #5 to #3.   Things are definitely heading into the right direction, wouldn't you say?!  I am so blessed.  

What else? Oh... Doin' Nothin' has also been streaming on all the major platforms such as Spotify, plus garnering national publicity as well.  Here is a link to read my major interview feature with "All Access Music" - which offers the latest radio industry and music news - about Doin' Nothin', the upcoming album and my goals this year. Before I go any further....If you haven't already, please do something, for me, and for you, and stream my super fun, perfect-for-summer tune Doin' Nothin' on Spotify.  After going on the road for my awesome gigs opening up for Tesla, doing media interviews, fan meet and greets, working on the new album's final touches, and then getting ready rehearsing and performing a full concert setlist at Summerfest, I was ready for a very short break from all the music action.  And I spent that time with the most important person in my life.  :)  I had a wonderful time with my amazing, smart, fun, funny and beautiful daughter Molly.  We spent time at my lake home swimming and boating, we also made cookies, did some cool daytrips and had fun playing with my dog.  Plus I ended up playing music after all...for her.  Haha!!  Overall, my sweet Molly and I had an amazing full week vacation together.  

Yes, I will say it again....I am so blessed. 

So as you can tell, I love my daughter, and my music career right now.  I have a strong chart profile in growth mode with more anticipated station and streaming playlist add coming in the weeks ahead, along with confirmed new, huge airplay coming this weekend (7/27-28) on the Jim Brickman national radio show with a major artist feature on stations in over 80 markets across the country.  Find out more about where to listen here: https://www.jimbrickman.com/radio/

Thanks fans for all your support!  Keep on rockin' and moving on up!!  I sure am.  ;)  

God Bless,

True.

Thomas Fuller was brought to America at age fourteen and was never taught how to read and write. But his calculation skills were amazing. People from his area in Africa were already known for their mathematical ability, so Fuller had presumably already learned before coming to America.

Hi everyone,

Hoping July is rocking for you. So this past Wednesday we did a killer show in Chicago at the Double Door. Very cool venue and it was great to be back performing again.

We opened for Kyle Gass and his band. Great band and they had a vibe.  Kyle was gracious for a photo or two.

Speaking of, hoping you have seen some of the cool pics that were taken. My favorites are the ones with my Orange shades that came with a 6 pack of beer from Belgium. Yeah that’s right. I bought beer for the shades! Check them out!

I have been so busy with the new project. We’re getting ready to go back in the studio the first week of August in Chicago with the band. In the meantime, this week I am headed to Nashville to work with Rick Chudacoff, my producer on the original 6 tunes. The following week to see our old friend Don Srygley at Fame Studios in Muscle Shoals, AL, for mixing and mastering. Then recording here in Chicago, then probably back to Nashville a couple of more times, ditto going back to Alabama.

Anyway, it’s a work of love and beauty. We’re up to 11 tunes in some stage, with another 1 or 2 screaming to be born. Stay tuned.

God Bless.
