In Honolulu, whether you are at a fancy hotel, a bookstore, the University, an art gallery, a high school or a club, the name Jason Tom is no stranger. He is known as the Hawai'i Human Beatbox and can perform Michael Jackson's "Bad" with just his voice and a microphone. - Examiner.com
Jason Tom wants to take his unique sound all the way to the Big Apple: Jason Tom looks like any other enthusiastic, fast-talking Chinatown hipster. But the 27-year-old McKinley High grad has an unusual talent. He can emit noises from his body that, probably, no one else on the island is capable of emitting. - Honolulu Weekly
