As a multi-instrumentalist and Pretty Cool Guy\u2122\ufe0f, His &#8220;Jack of all Trades&#8221; mentality has provided him with a steady supply of fill-in work over the years when he isn&#8217;t working on solo projects. Notably, Tom played drums in FUKM, guitar and drums for The Hoodslam Band, guitar for Oinga Boinga, and of course playing drums for his 2-piece metal band, Diatomaceous Earth. Tom also plays cello, mandolin, and dulcimer, among other instruments.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tom-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-197\" style=\"width:639px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tom-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tom-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tom-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tom-1-416x555.jpg 416w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Tom-1.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An avid enjoyer of things, Tom insists he enjoys all genres of music, all flavors of food, and all varieties of booze. Many know Tom for his iconic introduction, &#8220;Hi I&#8217;m Tom!&#8221; and the fact that he is still breathing. Outside of music, Tom competes in an APA pool league, and while he no longer competes at a tournament level, Tom still actively practices Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-207\" style=\"width:500px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-416x555.jpg 416w, https:\/\/hailingtides.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/THT-349-1-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tom VonLuk recently returned to Maine to round out the original lineup and bring his high-energy theatrics, tight grooves and cookie-monster vocals to The Hailing Tides.
