Tam Lin Music is a catch-all name for songs written and performed by Paul Weinfield. Paul was born in New York City, where he lives now (after some forays into the world beyond.) Tam Lin is a fairy king in old Scottish ballads. Paul believes that songs are like children: they come from you but leave after a while. If you're interested in adopting one of his songs, please do.
