Tom Birchy's Story
Share
Tom Birchy was born in South East, England in 1999. His father later moved to Singapore where Tom was educated until he turned 13. He later attended a boarding school, Christ College Brecon in the Brecon Beacons, Wales, until he was expelled in 2015 just prior to his GCSE examinations. Tom homeschooled himself through his examinations receiving top grades, later attending Hereford Sixth Form College where he received 5 A Grade A-Levels and then went to the University of Leeds to obtain a law degree.
At 16, shortly after starting Hereford Sixth Form College, Tom started his first business, Bassface. This was an events promotion company focusing on 16+ events in Herefordshire and this was the first taste of success in the music industry for the young man.
By 22, Tom had created other businesses in industries as diverse as e-commerce, marketing and food and beverage. This was when Tom first started to create social media content, and quickly became one of the UK's most influential content creators on TikTok with views exceeding 5 billion across his content.
Tom moved to Thailand in 2021 and became arguably the most famous foreigner in the country, starting a successful business in the 'broccoli' industry known as Knock Out Labs. In late 2024, Tom left Thailand due to legal issues regarding Thailand's stringent defamation laws, and started a new chapter in his life travelling North America, Latin America and Europe whilst honing his DJ skills.
In Summer 2025, Tom returned to the United Kingdom for a 7-date UK tour which was received with great turnouts from Plymouth to Chester.
Tom has since started offering group package trips to travellers to visit various European cities with him and his team, see upcoming dates here.
