Tom Clough (1881-1964) was a member of a very influential Northumbrian piping family, whose tradition went back some 250 years. He was recorded in the 1930's on some of the first commercially available examples of Northumbrian piping, and he was active in the Northumbrian Pipers Society. His playing is often described as crisp and staccato, while at the same time highly rhythmic.
