Major Tom & The Atoms are an explosive rhythm'n'blues orchestra featuring Little Red's original baritone crooner, 'Major' Tom Hartney. After 6 years touring the world and beyond with Little Red, Major Tom returned to his roots and assembled a powerhouse sextet hell-bent on rockin’ blues and big bad jungle grooves. Major Tom & The Atoms take their cues and clues from The Rolling Stones, The Doors, The Black Keys and co... concocting an addictive brew of honky-tonk blues, howlin' growlin' jungle grooves with a shot of classic straight up rock’n’roll. In June 2012 they released their debut EP ‘Shake It Til You Break It’ recorded by Sydney producer Tony Buchen (Tim Finn, Phrase, John Butler Trio, Blue King Brown, Washington etc.). Garnering airplay on Triple J, PBS, RRR and community radio stations nationwide, it wasn’t long before atomic tunes were picked up for synchronisation by Mushroom Music and serviced to outlets including Neighbours, Kellogs Iron Man as well as Hamish & Andy's
