Tim comes from Cortland, Ohio. Tim became interested in music at a young age, listening to Beatles cassette tapes and watching his grandfather play a Hammond organ. Started out picking up a guitar every now and then playing a few chords. Tim took it upon himself to become more serious at the age of 21 and discovered that he liked playing bass more so than the guitar. Tim got his start by going out to the local open mic nights, and joined his first blues/rock cover band.
Tim's influences were/are The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floydd to name a few. He has also been in some Beatles tribute bands.
