Tommy Mundon
voc,
Singer of Spoken Word, World and Folk
A lifelong resident of Halesowen, West Midlands, UK, Tommy was a born showman, comedian, singer and performer. The beloved comic died in 2014 following a battle against Parkinson's disease after entertaining the Black Country for decades through his tall tales and countless jokes. In the early 1970s he joined the Black Country Night Out show, performing with popular Black Country comics Dolly Allen and Doug Parker, poet Harry Harrison and folk singer Jon Raven. But at this time he was better known as part of the MWM light entertainment troupe, which saw team up with Opportunity Knocks winners Tony And Keith West, and singer Linda Marsh (3). Despite his huge popularity with Black Country folk, he never managed to break out onto the national stage, believing his strong accent may have scuppered his chances. The phone never did stop ringing, and Tommy continued to be in huge demand right up until the moment he was forced to end his showbusiness career in 2012.
