Tim Eriksen's music is some of the most hair-raising in American old-time and alternative folk, with a decidedly Northern Roots twist. He also has many years and remarkable depth of experience in a kaleidoscope of musical styles including South Indian Classical, Bosnian/Balkan, Hardcore Punk, Sacred Harp, Experimental Electro-acoustic and Oromo Gospel.

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that lol. I'd be happy to buy you a beer. x-D Your music is great though, voice fits perfectly. I wish you all the success you can manage, man. Wayfaring Stranger is one of my favorite songs and I'm just hearing your version of it now and damn your voice is powerful. Welp, stay up man!

Your music here is amazing. I'm sure you hear this all the time. It haunts my heart just listening, very spiritual. Also, very handsome. You were blessed on both sides of the coin.

A jam sounds good man - where abouts in England are you going to be? I should be around next summer. Ive just finished uni and want to go explore around a bit and was thinking about going to the states to play some music and such. Im thinking of going to Louisiana and the southern states, but would like to go further up north too. - where would you suggest?

Tim - Ive watched almost all of your videos here and your music is absolutely soulful and inspiring. Im from the UK and the incredible thing is that even though this music ( to me anyway ) is so wrought from the American landscape and culture, it still resounds in those that hear it over here. - truly timeless and entertaining music. Look forward to seeing more videos. Cheers, Otis.
