Tom Dawe Tom Dawe - Guitar & Vocals

Tom has worked together with Steve in Fragile since the band's origin back in 1999 and is mainly Fragile's rhythm guitarist, although some excellent bits of lead playing have been known to escape him!

Most people who see Fragile immediately warm to Tom and the part that he plays in the band. Tom's delight to be a part of Fragile is never more apparent than when he is on stage ripping out the Wurm riff! By his own admission he isn't a Steve Howe but his contribution is crucial, often making the difference between a faithfully reworked Yes classic and a compromise.

Tom is a man of few words and is best summed up by the following:


1. He is great fun to have around (and you need that when you are faced with a gig 250 miles away).

2. He knows his place (what other guitarist would WANT to play second fiddle)

3. He plays from the heart.

4. He has a great ability to "connect" with an audience.

5. He has survived many line-up changes over the last three years.

6. He has no pretences, does not analyse anything and would play anywhere..
