Thomas Dean Grady (Tommy Dean) ''The greatest songwriter in Seattle Washington''- '' Baby Gramps ''
Tommy was born In Reno Nevada and raised in Napavine, Tacoma and Seattle Washington. At the age of just 5 years old when on a trip to Memphis, TN with his parents, Tommy began singing old Hank Williams songs acapella on the street when none other than Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash came strolling by and stopped in awe. Johnny cited Tommy as his inspiration for his next auto-biography, which came out later that year. "This book is dedicated to the young Tom Grady" (Grady is Tommy's last name. He goes by his middle name Dean for performing).
