Tom Ryder was formed in 2019 by Emmely and Patrice. Starting out as an indie pop/rock duo they spent the first few months rediscovering, rewriting and reinventing the songs from their past. When they combined Emmely’s melodic singer/songwriter style with Patrice’s funk, and rock background they ended up creating a world of dreamy, ambient, fun and touching songs with catchy melodies, fun guitar riffs, weird tunings and a touch of electronic sounds that tie it all together.

In 2021 Tom Ryder grew to a quartet when Simon (bass) and Alex (drums) joined the band.

Sydney’s Half A Cow Records is proud to release the first single from Tom Ryder, a three minute gem titled “Sunsets”.
