Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Tom Lillo is a singer/songwriter based in Los Angeles. After years of studio work, engineering and producing others (Jude, Christopher Williams), he decided it was time to express himself. Teamed with producer David Miner (Elvis Costello, T-Bone Burnett, Pierce Pettis), they assembled a group of friends with credits ranging from Country superstar Dwight Yoakam to the legendary Frank Sinatra, including guest vocalist, Jason Wade of Lifehouse. The resulting album, Blue Eyed Mystic, is a timeless collection of singer/songwriter rock and roll.

Blue Eyed Mystic delves into the spiritual depths of love and truth. Says Lillo, "The first line on the recording is 'just a blue eyed mystic with my mystery'. I've always been a mystic, someone who believes you can know the unknowable, find a direct connection to God." And in that vein, Tom explains, "the songs on this record are sometimes ambiguous and could be about a person, or God, or both."

After ten years of working in the studio for other artists, "it was an incredible feeling to have these great musicians putting energy into my project and have them take it seriously ... even if I was paying them. That was the best part of the project." And the hardest part? The hardest part was "each step of the way I felt a little more naked, under more and more scrutiny ... but this recording was important to me in establishing a new confidence in my own ability ... as a singer, as a songwriter, and as a musician." Any last fears? Tom confides, "Anyone can make up words and melodies, but the good stuff is a gift. I hope my stuff is good."
