Tom is always very grateful to receive feedback, and you can leave yours by using the Contact page, or by adding your comment to a News item. Here is just a sample of the feedback Tom has received:-
Thank you for a brilliant vocal performance at our evening wedding reception last night at Doxford Hall Hotel. From the very beginning when we first spoke to Tom, to booking him for our wedding reception, we found his level of service to be first class and very professional. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he was more than happy to go that extra mile for us. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed listening to you sing Tom, and we loved your interaction with our guests as you walked around, which many thought got them more involved. It was lovely to see a family working as a team together and making it an evening to remember for us.
We would definitely recommend you to anyone seeking a top class performer for any event and you have 2 new fans who will definitely be making a visit to Marabini's in Morpeth to see you perform in the future.
Many Thanks again
- Chris and Clare
Married at Doxford Hall Hotel
Tom doesn't just thoroughly entertain his guests he involves them, Tom absolutely "wowed" the guests at our recent ball at the Marriott Gosforth Park. The audience enjoyed his performance, setting the scene and lifting the convivial mood for the rest of the evenings charity fundraising activities. Well done Tom, you are a unique but very useful act, it is very easy to recommend you as an entertainer to anyone wishing to have an audience lifted, entertained and involved.

Tom, I heard you singing in Eldon Square yesterday and was moved to tears. I wish you every success, not just on Tyneside but nationwide - you have a very special talent. Lots of luck
- Carole Walton
Final tally was fab - I think it's about £2100 but will email you exact amount when it's all in, I was never expecting anywhere near that so I am sooooo pleased. It was a great evening and Tom was just fab!!! He made the evening rock! And everyone was raving about him too!
Clare kendall (following fundsaising night for St Oswald's Hospice)
Thank you for making Clare's charity night at Marabini's such an overwhelming success. You are such a talented young man with an amazing voice and I haven't stopped telling everyone how amazing you are. I bought both your cd's which I love as they have a lovely balance of classical and modern. My grandson Patrick (8 years old) bought one of your cd's and plays it each night when he goes to bed. I'm looking forward to hearing you again. Good luck for the future.
- Gay Penn, Morpeth
Thankyou. Thankyou again Tom. You are fantastic! You sang for our celebration of our marriage renewal, and again for Morpeth Harriers social and fundraising evening. Guests have fed me back lovely comments regarding yourself. Can you let me know the dates you are playing in Eldon Square? We would love to drop by and listen.
I am loving your CD, it's on every day in my car, and it brings emotion, happiness and lightens my day when I hear your beautiful voice. Your CD is a must, as it just brings back the great times we have spent listening to you.
- Paddy & Egil Paulsen, Morpeth
Have been listening to 'Il Divino' and all I can say is 'Wow'. I enjoyed every track. The mix of tracks is very clever and well thought out. The clarity of your voice is absolutely superb and I feel I am listening to Il Divo and the four tenors all rolled into one. You deserve every success. I can hear and feel the difference between your first and second CD's....and I thought the first one was good!!!
Long may you continue to rise in popularity and get your considerable talent noticed and appreciated for the wonderful gift that you have.
- Sara Colver-Smith, Gloucestershire
Many thanks!!
- Michael Floyd, Diner at Marabini's
A must have for your wedding day and worth every penny!!!
We just wanted to say a massive thank you and confirm how brilliant Tom was during the day and in the evening on the 13th October on our Wedding Day. In the evening he had the dance floor packed all night! He was great; absolutely everyone loved him, a real entertainer and did a great variation of songs. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better and he is a true professional. Thank you for making our day so special.
- Elliott & Vanessa Hall, Married, Doxford Hall Hotel
Thanks Tom, what a night and what a contrast, both acts that were on were brilliant, one very heavy rock and your vocal set. I still can't believe that you sang for an hour and a half, danced and moved the audience so much without any errors, bum notes or missed lyrics. Thank you for at the last minute taking requests for songs and again were note perfect. I hope you spotted that 10 seconds into your first song that the audience who had never danced as yet were on their feet dancing and joining in with you.
I know on the night you received lots of feedback from the audience, especially about the opera. I think you should change you Facebook status about employment to professional singer as it can be only a matter of time before you are spotted and taken away from us to a wider audience.
Thank you again from us all

I can't explain how much you made our special day perfect. Your voice is truly amazing. We have had so many people approach us and say "Where did you find him? His voice is stunning." Can I also just say what a lovely and genuine person you are. You stayed all day and kept everyone going - the kids loved you (feel free to come and keep our kids entertained any time you want!). Please thank your Dad as well for us, he was brilliant also. I really hope you keep in touch - what a lovely family. Good luck for the future Tom, we know you will become a big star soon with a voice like yours.
Take care - can't wait to hear you singing again very soon!

Tom, you were superb, well worth the hours journey! You have a lovely family as well, we have had a brilliant evening, we must sing together again! Thankyou Tom, and love to all your family.
Anna(Foster - Metro Radio)
Hi Tom - just to let you know your performance at Marabini's was just superb to say the least. You just get more and more accomplished every time we see you. Your duet with Anna was amazing, and to us you were cooking on gas all night. Peter and I have not stopped talking about it since Friday and just for the record Ena says ~ if any one in that restaurant said they didn't enjoy the night there must be something drastically wrong with them!! She also said to me your voice is one of the best she has heard and that you can hold your audience in the palm of you hand, a true professional - as we are all aware. Thank you so much once again for your dedication of "Nella Fantasia", you are AMAZING. What a star!
- Sylvia Orrick after seeing Tom at Marabini's, when he performed a duet with Anna Foster, from Metro Radio
Tom performed at the Mayor's Civic Ball, and we were all up dancing and singing by the end of the first song. Everyone, including the Mayor, agreed that the evening was a HUGE SUCCESS and Tom was a fantastic performer - with Tom singing something for everyone - young and old!! - Gillian Turner, Town Clerk, Morpeth
This was our first visit to Marabini's Morpeth, but won't be our last. Tom turned a good meal into a really enjoyable night out. The atmosphere he created was great and he was really well received by the whole audience. He is a real asset for the restaurant. The variety, quality, content and fun of his performance is truly remarkable. Great night, we can't wait to come back!!
- Harry Ferry (after Tom's recent appearance at Marabini's)
The charity, Multiple Sclerosis Research and Relief Fund(MSRRF) would like to thank Tom for his most amazing performance at the recent "Aster Gala Dinner Fundraising and Awareness Event at Close House Hotel and Golf Resort-May 3rd 2012.
This was the charity's first major Gala Dinner event, supporting all people affected by Multiple Sclerosis.
Tom brought the Marquee down -
"He is amazing";
"That voice! Wow where did that come from?",
"Crikey- who is that?";
"He brought tears to my eyes when he sang "Bring him Home "".
These are just some of the comments which people shared with me during the evening!
Tom absolutely wowed the crowd. He also made a fantastic contribution to the charity's fundraising efforts by making a donation from his CD's sold on the night, contributing to the amazing £6200 raised during the evening. Thank you to Tom and his fabulous Managers and exceptional sound expert, Edward.
- Susan Dowson Networking and Marketing Manager .MSRRF.
Hi Tom , it's Anna (Foster - Metro Radio Presenter) here , thanks so much for your CD. I absolutely loved it , I think you have a super voice with a lovely tone.
Thanks for helping me find a backing track for All I Ask of You! I'm ever so glad you got in contact . I'm moving to Magic radio soon and I think we may do a concert at Christmas, and I would definitely like to get you involved !....It's tricky making a living singing, that's why I do radio but it is my first love really!
Do keep in contact and thanks about Phantom backing track! Would have loved to sing it with you! Maybe next time!"
Anna :)! (Foster - Metro Radio Presenter)
Toma Fund would like to thank Tom for his ongoing help and support for our charity. Ever since Tom first performed for us in Eldon Square, "wowing" Newcastle at Christmas, people have commented to us about his AMAZING voice and talent.
If you haven't seen him before, you just won't be prepared for the quality and power of his performance. He has people in tears with some beautiful anthems and songs, and then foot tapping and up dancing to others - versatile should be his middle name!
Tom has already helped our charity raise thousands of pounds, and on top of that - he's a lovely, lovely young man to know and work with, and for caring so much about our cause.
Thank you Tom, from all at Toma Fund
- Andrea Thompson, Co-Founder, Toma Fund
Saw you in Metrocentre, bought your cd fabulous....my sister also bought a cd, we were with my mother 85yrs, auntie and little neice 5yrs. So all ages enjoyed. Good luck in all you do.
-Anne Docherty, following Metrocentre performance
- Mandy Constantine, following Metrocentre performance
We still believe it is only a matter of time until you get noticed for the star performer that you are.
Keep up the good work.
- Sylvia Orrick after seeing Tom at Marabini's
Hi Tom, I'm still enjoying your CD and informing many people of how much we enjoyed your performance at Marabini's. We have a table of thirteen reserved for March 9th and are looking forward to hearing you sing. Hope you are getting lots of bookings - we wish you every success with your career.
Best wishes
- Brian Templeman
Congratulations Tom on your amazing recent performance at Marabinis restaurant, I am privileged to have you singing for me. What a wonderful, natural talent you have. Every one of my customers have passed their compliments for you. See you soon, good luck and all the best for your future.
- Giovanni Marabini (Proprietor, Marabini's Ristorante)
What an amazing voice Tom has! We recently heard him singing at Marabinis restaurant in Morpeth and were speechless - it sent shivers through me. He had all his audience captured from beginning to end, he is a future star!!!
- Brooke Fields
Caught your performance on 20 December when passing through Eldon Square.
Absolutely blown away, like so many of the others listening, by the power and clarity of your voice and bought your Crescendo CD in consequence. Already much listened to and not a weak track on it - brilliant.
If I don't see you soon on National TV there is no justice in the world.
You must have a huge future in entertaining ahead of you and I wish you every success for the future.
What a find you really are.
- Sylvia Orrick, email after the Toma Fund performance
Hi Tom
I heard you today whilst shopping in Eldon Square and would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the help you are providing in supporting the cancer charity. I have a dear friend who is currently fighting very hard to beat it and my mother and I had tears streaming when we heard you today. Many people around us also had tears in their eyes. We both bought your cd and I'm sure each time we hear it, it will remind us that people do care. Thank you again and I wish you all the success in the world.
- Victoria Spencer, email after the Toma Fund performance
Dear Tom
Thank you for performing yesterday. It was amazing, you have a real talent there, and definitely have a future in singing. Andrea rang last night to say they had already counted £1,600*(see below) and hadn't finished counting the last pennies. That was all down to you.
I will be in touch soon. Have a lovely Christmas. Sue

Subsequently, and reproduced from the Toma Fund website....
Another HUGE thank you to Mr Tom Wyllie for helping us raise a fantastic £1830 at our Eldon Square collection over Christmas. Tom sang his little heart out for Toma Fund all day and had the crowds stand back in amazement; this is quite simlpy because he is AMAZING.
Tom is an amazing young talent. He has performed recently for Newcastle West Rotary Club to great acclaim from all who saw him. His singing in Eldon Square shopping centre at our charity collection brought smiles, tears and great applause from men, women and children alike - as well as our highest collection ever!

Tom's performance at the Northumbria Wine & Food Festival was the show stopper. He made everyone stop and listen with his incredible, powerful and moving voice. Tom has a singing talent like no other performer we have ever heard and with his stage charisma was undoubtedly the highlight of the festival. We would like to book him again next year if we possibly can. I, as Festival organiser, am very proud to recommend Tom and know that anyone who is fortunate enough to be at one of Tom's performances will be as thrilled and delighted as we were.
- Helen Greer, Northumbria Wine & Food Festival
Later….
"Further discussions were brought to a halt though when 18 year old Harry Potter lookalike Tom Wyllie started singing. Tom shall hereafter be referred to as “The Voice” as, for about half an hour, he enthralled the audience and vendors alike with a mix of Opera, Pop and Swing music receiving enthusiastic and well deserved applause – interestingly enough he’s now showing bookings on his web site from Curiously Wicked and Sachins, so it looks like the quiet Sunday footfall didn’t stop him doing good business!"

As a trained musician myself, I was staggered by the purity and quality of Toms' voice when I first heard him sing and was honoured when he agreed to sing at our launch. The range and delivery of his performance is staggering and it's hard to believe that such an accomplished result comes from someone so young. Everyone thought he was marvelous and we had so many positive comments on the day and demands for his CD that orders needed to be taken! Needless to say, we bought two-one for the shop and one for home so that we could listen to him again and again. I firmly believe that Tom is a true star and that it's only a matter of time before he is discovered and given the opportunities he so deserves to bring his voice to the forefront internationally. Tom Wyllie will one day be a household name and we are so privileged to be one of the first to hear him perform. Thank you Tom.

WOW!!!!!

You have a very special gift and MUST go far. The range of your voice is incredible and the clarity spellbinding. I have to say it brought a tear to my eye and it gave me goosebumps.
