TomCattt Thomas Patton From the beginning music has prowled with accordion lessons at a young age, followed by sax, blues harp and more recently piano, vocals, song writing and recording. Thomas Patton (AKA TomCattt) credits his mother for his stage name "TomCattt” as she was big on nick names for those she held close to her heart. TomCattt's music is best described as easy listening and sometimes retro, yet with a contemporary mix and feel. Accompanied by the creative tracks of a number of gifted musicians, his first album Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa inspires imagination and finds a way to impress with a unique vocal sound, compelling harmony and gripping melody. The lyrical content is in fact a living reflection of this artists emotional journey that followed leaving love, finding a new love only to lose love once again. Hiiyaaaaaaaaaaa was released on June 1st, 2013 and all are invited to Soundcloud, Bandcamp, ReverbNation and Cdbaby where "A Question" is free download and to enjoy TomCattt's website tomcattt.com.

It was in London that he embraced the DJ impetus and performed regularly in renowned clubs and events such as Fabric London, Fire, Área, Heaven, Club No65, Union, Egg, Coronet and the Summer Rites festival, but he didn't stop there. The following years witnessed Paulo traveling all over the world to delight all those who listen to him with his sets full of depth, versatility, and energy. Portugal brought him a residency at Kremlin nightclub who gave him international recognition, regularly playing alongside names like Dennis Ferrer, Steve Lawler, Mendo, Prok and Fitch, and Hobo, Alan Fitzpatrick, Anja Schneider, Dennis Cruz, Goncalo, Anna, just to name a few.🇵🇹 Seleções sonoras nascidas de um conhecimento de causa poderia ser uma forma de descrever Paulo Moreno.D The Invisible Wave Podcast Invisible Wave An estimated 1 in 4 young adults in the U.S. are living with a chronic medical condition, many invisible to the naked eye, and posing unique challenges in education, healthcare, the workplace, mental health, and the family.The Invisible Wave Podcast illuminates these shared challenges through highly relatable personal stories from individuals, caregivers, and innovators, and highlights effective grassroots solutions to improve quality of life for this vast, underserved community.*About the Host:*On the first day of her medical fellowship, Dr. Santi Bhagat’s 8-year-old daughter was rushed to the emergency room where they induced a medical coma to stop her first seizure.
