Contents
Appearance
He looks around fifty years old, small and has a big mouth, pointy nose and thin brown hair.[1]
History
Tom once ran afoul of Edmure Tully when he stole a girl that Edmure was supposed to bed to take his virginity. Edmure had drank too much and was unable to perform. Tom then made a song about a floppy fish, which led to Edmure's hatred of music.[2] He passed seven sons long ago and claims they all have beautiful voices.[3] Supposedly one of his sons resides at the Peach in Stoney Sept though Tom does not claim him.[4]
House Tully has never been good to Tom. Lady Lysa Tully once sent Tom up the high road, where the Mountain clans took his gold, horse and clothes. He walked up to the Gates of the Moon with nothing but his harp. There the guards made him sing two songs before letting him pass.[5]
He sang at the wedding of his cousin, Ser Pate of the Blue Fork, though his cousin never paid him.[6]
Recent Events

Tom and his companions Lem and Anguy stumble upon Arya Stark, Gendry and Hot Pie digging in a garden. There, after a display of archery from Anguy, they force Arya, Gendry and Hot Pie to accompany them to the Inn of the Kneeling Man.[7]
A Feast for Crows
When Ser Jaime Lannister visited the camp of the Freys during the siege of Riverrun, where Tom was present as a musician. Jaime had Tom follow him after claiming Edmure Tully. After Jaime was done threatening Edmure, he ordered the singer to sing The Rains of Castamere. When asked by Jaime, Tom claimed he hoped to win a place at Riverrun after Emmon Frey became its lord. Jaime suggests he court the favor of his aunt, not Emmon, who is a blustering idiot.[8] He is listed as still being a member of Lady Stoneheart's band of outlaws. So the placement would put him in an ideal spot to eliminate the Freys in Riverrun in favor of Catelyn. [9]
