        Welcome to my site. There are many of the songs I have written and recorded here. In life sometimes things happen and can't be explained. For me when I look back on my life the idea of playing guitar was when I was about eleven years old. I bought my first guitar for I think it was $7. Music can find itself in almost every circumstance unforeseen or not. I knew even at a young age that I had a drive to creating these sounds from the guitar and making music. From that first guitar I began experimenting and teaching myself how to play. It wasn't long before I began composing tracks and writing words for songs. I spent many years jamming with other musicians and somewhere along the path found myself in a couple of garage bands. During these times I played in a few duo type arrangements mostly playing the rhythm and lead guitar I wasn't singing yet in public. I did many collaboration projects with other artists until the time came for me to be doing my own music. I started in 2000 when I felt it was time to go into a professional studio and record songs I had written. The first time I used only my acoustic guitar however this was a process for me as I began to record songs adding drums, bass guitar, electric guitars, keyboards and horns. I recorded many songs over a 11 year period out of Painted Sky Studios located in the coastal town of Cambria, California. These were long drives to get to the studio but what a great place to record. I made many trips over many years to Painted Sky Studios working closely with my friend and recording engineer Steve Crimmel. Local artists Michael Shimberg on bass guitar and Tim Novoa on drums would come into the studio often to lay down their tracks with mine.

I wish to thank everyone for coming by this site and spending their time listening to the music. ​

Shadow

by music reviewer Steve Gilmore...
"I`ve only reviewed a couple of Tim's tracks. A blow-yer-fekkin-ears-off 'Diary of a Nobody' in (2007)...and 'Wonder' a slice of Southern Rock that was all Tim`s own work. Goes without saying we are talking about a musician here who knows exactly what he is doing and where he is going"......The song 'Mystery' is pretty much all guitar from the finger picking to the sublime all in the hands of someone who totally understands the 'less is more' concept..."I`m doing the best I can"...the vocals wail but all bow down to the assembled guitar horde and therein lies the real treasure of this track"

 

by Jeff Nelson - recording engineer, musician and owner of MTM Studios, Granite Bay, California...

​    "Tim makes his own style of music and his music spans across folk, rock and blues. A unique style of playing born from over 50 plus years of being self taught and working with a long list of musicians and recording engineers."
