Tommy Oeffling

Tommy Oeffling creates his music in a modest second-floor bedroom within an unremarkable Milwaukee duplex, and you can hear every step he takes, each creak of his chair, any missed guitar notes, and every breath he draws during recordingand he welcomes that imperfection. He wants the work to feel authentically human, drawn from his own life; it echoes back to the CDs his father burned onto an iPod Nano gifted him at age eleven for Christmas, which he believes is its intended spirit. Some label it nostalgic. He isnt sure if thats true or notand honestly, he doesnt really care either way.
