About the Artist
Tom Waits (born Thomas Alan Waits, in Pomona, California, on December 7, 1949) is a prolific American singer, songwriter, composer, and actor.
He started his career in the early 1970s as a singer in spit 'n' sawdust bars. Initially, he was deeply influenced by the beat generation, novelists like Jack Kerouac and William S. Burroughs, and poets like Allen Ginsberg and Charles Bukowski. Waits is often compared to Charles Bukowski, being similar both in content and lifestyle

Suggested Song Selection (Championship forums) pt 5
These are songs participants have submitted to be in the championship. If you are a creator and your cdlc was made before 2025 it would be much appreciated to fix it up to 2025 standards or fix any other issues it has so that the championship could be better. The chances of it being picked will most likely increase if there are paths for Lead Rhythm and Bass done properly. Unfortunatley theres a 150 song limit on setlist so there might be multiple playlists. pt5
