“Tommy can you hear me?”

Thomas Micheal Daltry was born in Glasgow Scotland one of Six children to Paul and Adelaide Daltry.

When he was 14 he immigrated with his family to Henderson, Nevada. He bloomed in high school exploring his natural talents for singing, acting, violin and guitar. He graduated with honors from Green Valley High School in 1999.

Despite a difficult upbringing he was incredibly kind and sympathetic, which is why when I was later accepted to the University of Utah in Salt Lake City he got two masters degrees first in Social Work in 2007 and then Musical Theatre in 2013. Merging the two to open up his own Music Therapy Practice, learning the piano, drums and tambourine on the way. He specialized in helping sexual assault survivors and those with hoarding disorder, both experiences he dealt with first hand.

“It can’t rain all the Time”

In mid 2023 he met his partner Alice and despite a brief breakup last month, they got back together and he had plans to propose. Alice we love you, you’re still part of our family.

He was a lover of Kevin Smith Movies (Dogma was his favorite, the Alan Rickman as Metatron photo was requested in his note) Vegan Cooking, Animals and Travel.
