Tommy 16

**Tommy 16** is a scrappy indie-punk artist hailing from Philadelphia, known for his no-frills garage rock energy and power-pop hooks that feel like a caffeine jolt straight to the eardrums. Emerging in the mid-2010s as a solo act, his music channels suburban restlessness and self-aware humor, with tracks like *Only Happy On My Knees* and *Shauna* blending catchy riffs with lyrics that toe the line between sarcasm and sincerity. Recent releases like *The Monaco EP* and *Rocking Big Buddha* double down on his DIY ethos—think blown-out vocals, ramshackle production, and a vibe that’s equal parts basement show chaos and pop craftsmanship. When he’s not cranking out cheeky anthems like *#1 Single* or collabing with fellow punk acts (The Sueves, Stuyvesant), Tommy 16’s live gigs keep his cult following hooked, proving you don’t need polish to pack a punch.
