We had the pleasure to host Tim Harrison at our venue
last Saturday evening January 13th. If you haven't
had the opportunity to hear Tim live, don't hesitate
or wait... get to a concert and get him to your venue!
He was phenomenal... humorous and insightful, his
songs reach deep inside, his instrumentals were tasteful,
powerful, and completed the mood of each song... the
audience was mesmerized into complete silence during
each song as they hung on every word... In short...
Tim Harrison is a performer who should be experienced
live.

I will second Lou's comments about Tim Harrison.
I booked him at Bodles and was totally enthralled
with his performance. He is everything Lou said.....book
him!

McTiernan, Flint Folk Music Society Flint, Michigan
It was one of those performances where time stands
still, where when the last song is sung you look at
your watch and wonder where the time went. You have
not been merely entertained but taken places and seen
things through the eyes of the singer. Tim really
invites you into his music and with his expressive
voice and guitar, you become part of his songs. Needless
to say I enjoyed his performance and could have spent
more time under his spell. Thanks for sending him
our way and we hope to have in back in the future
for an encore performance.

"We enjoyed having Tim play at Trinity House Theatre. His CDs are
striking but pale in comparison to his commanding live presence. The
audience wouldn't let him off the stage... we look forward to having
him back."

Irene
& Peter Breichmanas, Precious Friends House Concerts Dundas ON
"A house concert with Tim is an experience not soon
forgotten. His lyrics are both poetic and intellectually
stimulating. His melodies are haunting, at times
driving, and always masterfully delivered through
intricate guitar work...[his] distinctively expressive
voice and easy, captivating manner takes the audience
on a voyage which transforms the ordinary and mundane
into pure magic. He speaks directly to our senses,
evoking powerful, artistic word images which last
long after the concert is over, as does the realization
that we have shared a special moment with an uniquely
talented artist."

Murray, Barrie Folk Society Barrie ON
Tim is a lover of celtic music and because of that I am a lover of Tim's music. His voice is both soothing and haunting as he transports the listener across the Atlantic with such songs as "In Dark Irish Kitchens", or a personal favourite of mine, "Carrickfergus". As well, his heartfelt and elegiac lyrics extend a visceral experience for the audience. When Tim sings, you can almost smell the salty ocean air in "Sara And The Sea" or feel the warmth of love shared by his two friends in "Two Hearts Beat in Galena".
Tim's background in folk music is steeped in the traditional sounds that remind of the days of Stan Rogers and Phil Ochs. Tim is also fortunate to have played with many talented musicians both from the past and present music scene. One such talent is Paul Mills, who delighted the crowd with his lively and varied accompaniment, adding a richness of colour and flavour to Tim's already tasty repertoire.

Beth Auerbach, Sleepy Hollow Folk Club Falls Church, VA
Tim delivers what we're looking for in a house concert performer -- an ability to connect with a diverse audience in an
intimate setting; a stylistic range that keeps everyone interested; a voice that's pure pleasure; and between-song vignettes both clever and very genuine.

his songwriting, the deftness of his playing and
the emotional vibrancy of his voice.

Karen Finkenberg, Folk Music Society of Huntington Huntington, NY Tim Harrison's performance at this month's Hard Luck Cafe was a terrific finale to our season. If you haven't seen Tim perform, you've missed a good show.
