Tom Kenny & The Hi-Seas are a Los Angeles-based RocknRoll/Soul/R&B band that “brings the party” wherever and whenever they perform. They are the embodiment of no-holds- barred, all-in rock n roll. Simply put, their mission statement can be summed up as follows: “Hey, let’s have as much fun as humanly possible!”
Drawing on influences ranging from Sam Cooke to The Shangri-Las to The Righteous Brothers, their rockers cause dance floor mayhem and their soulful ballads induce swooning. There’s no doubt that you and your socks will part company once you experience Tom Kenny & The Hi-Seas.
The band’s manic front man is Tom Kenny. Tom is the highly regarded voice actor behind the immortal “SpongeBob SquarePants”, The Ice King from “Adventure Time”, many voices on “Rick and Morty”, and literally hundreds of other animated characters. He won an Emmy in 2018 for outstanding contributions to an animated program.
The Hi-Seas’ band leader is Andy Paley. As The Paley Brothers, Andy and his brother Jonathan brought their sunny pop/rock to stages ranging from CBGB’s to Madison Square Garden. Post-Paley Brothers, Andy went on to perform with and produce numerous major artists including Ramones, Patty Smith, Brian Wilson, Madonna and, Jerry Lee Lewis.
Girl Group trio The Damselles add a glamorous dimension to the line-up, bringing sultry tight harmonies, and top-flight choreography to the mix. It’s as if the glory days of the Ronettes, and The Supremes had never ended.
