A Podcast Conversation With ... Theo Tams

By Bill King

Over the years, I’ve had an outside interest in following the progress of singer/songwriter Theo Tams. It began with the annual Yuletide duets with vocalist Ali Slaight, and then the occasional Tams side. Most recently, during the pandemic years, Tams began revealing much about himself in each release.  Therapy –– Jekyll Hyde Love – Quit U Love and most recently One Last Chance – the message and theme behind the Bell Let’s Talk documentary about mental health produced with Workman Arts, a multidisciplinary arts organization that promotes greater understanding of mental health and addiction issues through creation and presentation.

Musicians’ Unions Back The Boss After Trump Dumps On Bruce Springsteen Again: ‘We Stand in Complete Solidarity With Bruce’

The president called the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend a "bad and very boring singer" while accusing Springsteen of having "Trump Derangement Syndrome" in a post on Tuesday (April 2).

The war of words between Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump cranked up another notch on Thursday (April 2) when Dan Point, the president of the Local 802 American Federation of Musicians and Local 47 AFM president Marc Sazer lashed out at the president for his latest broadside against the Boss.

“We can not remain silent as one of our most celebrated members is singled out and personally attacked by the President of the United States,” the union presidents said in a joint statement following a post on Trump’s Truth Social in which the president again took aim at the rock icon for speaking out against his administration. “Bruce Springsteen is not just a brilliant musician, he is a voice for working people, a symbol of American resilience, and an inspiration to millions in this country and around the world.”
