Tom Skinner

London-based drummer, composer, guitarist and producer Tom Skinner is directly associated with genre-defying, boundary pushing musical projects. He regularly contributes to studio and live dates for significant artists, and releases records of his own. Skinner plays alongside members of Radiohead in the Smile, and is the founding, former drummer of Sons of Kemet. He traverses both meditative grooves and spiritual expression. On 2022's Voices of Bishara, his debut leader date, he included saxophonists Nubya Garcia and Shabaka Hutchings. Two years later, in May 2024, Skinner issued Voices of Bishara Live at "Mu", a double-length set with saxophonists Chelsea Carmichael and Robert Stillman. In September 2025, Skinner released Kaleidoscopic Visions, a mix of instrumental and vocal tracks.
