In country music, a genre whose lyrics always have told stories, he has come to be called The Story Teller. Described as “musical journalism" and “subjective reportage set to music,” his most representative songs stand out as masterfully understated portraits of a seldom - heard - from America. It is an America his audiences recognize as home. Tom T. Hall is a specialist at describing people, and he describes himself as “an old boy who picks a guitar and sings through his nose.” He carries a five-piece band and performs to 15 or 20 audiences a month at county fairs, outdoor parks, country music nightclubs and college campuses. Generally he feels that the quieter the crowd is, the better he can entertain it.
