Tom Pease

Tom was born and raised in Burlington, Iowa along the Mississippi river and its surrounding bluffs gave him foundation love of the natural world. Eventually this led him to teaching environmental education for 3 ½ years in California and Colorado which is where he first started singing with kids.

Tom has performed full time since 1982 doing over 200 programs yearly. He now resides in rural Amherst, Wisconsin on 75 acres of rolling woods and fields with his wife, Louise. Their home is both solar heated and solar electric. The sun also helps raise a big garden and many chickens each year. They ski, bike, run and walk on trails around their land. They live in a wonderful community of friends and neighbors. Louise is a retired reading teacher and now a librarian and an avid lake swimmer.
