Promotional Material
Tim O’Connor is an acoustic singer-songwriter from Tottenham, London who plays heartfelt indie/folk music influenced by classic bands such as The Beatles and Kinks, plus latter day songwriters such as Elliott Smith and Damien Jurado.
Working as an Autism specialist by day, empathy and communication are key themes of Tim’s songs – songs which have been played live at a range of venues including the Natural History Museum, Ronnie Scott’s, and The Cavern in Liverpool. After a spell in a band, Tim is recording his solo album for release via BandCamp, and a debut EP called ‘Promotional Material’ was released in 2018; It’s a collection of demos and live recordings, and serves as a dry run for the album.
Tracks ‘My Name Is Fire’, and ‘Love Seeks No Easy Way Out’ have received airplay on BBC London Introducing, Readifolk Radio, Acoustic Yard, Novaradio.co.uk, Pull The Plug podcast, Wandsworth Radio, and Shoreditch Unsigned. Work on the debut album is ongoing, but should be completed in 2019.
“A beauty… reminds us of a young Beck crossed with the Super Furries.” Native Magazine “A pastoral folk pop straight from the primeval forests… rich and passionate… melodies shimmer with golden sunlight.” Diamond Deposits blog. “Intricate guitar work and urgent melodies… a real treat.” IPO Festival website “I liked @Timplayslive’s gentle-as-an-autumn-leaf Love Seeks No Easy Way Out.” Jude Rogers, The Guardian
