He formed his own combo at the age of 12 and toured Southern Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Arkansas. At 14, Tommy moved to Los Angeles, attending Dorsey High and graduating from Los Angeles High School. He then attended Los Angeles City College for two years and Cal State L.A. for another two, majoring in music.
