Tom Tikka & The Missing Hubcaps consistently makes music for a cause, for a purpose, and for a mission larger than his own. From his wonderful folk pop record on “Better Man” comes Venetian Rubber Boots, a really incisive and well put together critique and anthem about the environment, about our capitalist tendencies, and our failure to recognise the beauty of the nature that’s been gifted to us. There’s a purity to his music that isn’t just discernible in the flowery lyrics, but also in the expressiveness of his performance. You can tell almost immediately that this is music that’s quite clearly coming from within, from the heart of a song-writer who believes in his ability to make change through art.
So show your love, support the music that has a purpose, a cause, and a melody to make it an entirely enjoyable experience.
