Tom Lattanand is a multifaceted guitarist, composer,and music producer based in Oakland CA. Employing a mix of finger style technique and percussive rhythms to the steel string acoustic, Tom utters simultaneous melodic voices with dense sonic textures from a single instrument. His audience comes to expect an overall sound that is powerful, ambient, bluesy, and textured. After many years firmly rooted in the Bay Area, Tom continues to practice a musical nomadism, allowing him to collaborate with artists of all stripes and grooves. He currently performs in the 12 piece Afrobeat inspired funk ensemble Strike Iron, and leads electro funk project Root Logic.
