About Me

Just me and my acoustic on stage playing an eclectic, up tempo mix of catchy originals and obscure or genre-bending adaptations (i don't do covers:). I love playing fun live sets and getting the audience involved. If you need an opening act - gimme a shout yo!

I'm a drummer too and have played in several bands - I play caixa and shakers in Samba Elegua (www.sambaelegua.com) a brazillian percussion band. And, I also play djembe every Tuesday evening with Drummers in Exile (www.drummersinexile.com), an open freestyle percussion jam and dance, formerly of Trinity-Bellwoods Park. Hooray4Fun!

See you out there, Tim

ps. here's so some sweet footage of our us going wild at our weekly Tuesday night Drum & Dance - for more info, photo, audio visit www.drummersinexile.com H4F!
