Tom Smith learned to play bass and guitar in the parks and streets of Brooklyn.  He has been in over two dozen bands and published five self-produced CDs of original material since 2015 under the artist name Merry Jaynz and Lunchtime Tom.  Smith has been Swingbooty’s upright bass player since 2020. Inspired by greats like Berry Oakley and Phil Lesh, Tom’s bass lines blend a solid groove with melodic finesse, weaving harmonically rich lines that add depth and energy to the music.
