Thomas Carroll mostly works in improvisation, performing using feedback electronics and scavenged devices (‘some-input mixer’).
Sometimes he performs pieces that are closer to ‘composition’ by some definition.
He runs Free Music Lessons, a gig series in Leeds; and co-runs Conception, an experimental open mic night in Leeds.
He also produces music, and plays drums for two of his bands: Static Caravan, and Clothes Horse.
