Big Tom
Tom McBride (1936 - 2018), known as Big Tom, was a famed and loved Irish country singer with a career spanning over five decades. He started his showbusiness journey in 1966 when he became the frontman of the Irish showband, Big Tom & The Mainliners. Tom, a native of the small town of Castleblayney in County Monaghan, deep in the Irish midlands, had three number 1 chart hits in the 1970's and many other top 10 hits including Gentle Mother, Four Country Roads and The Same Way You Came In. Many of Tom's most successful songs were written by prolific Donegal man and Denver Records founder, Johnny McCauley. Tom joined the Denver Records label as a featured artist following his early releases through Emerald Records prior to 1971.
Tom continued to release huge selling albums with The Mainliners, and later The Travellers, throughout the 70's and 80's. Tom reunited with members of The Mainliners for tour dates around Ireland and the UK in 2008.
