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.

I live in the Czech Republic but sadly couldn't get to see you in Náměšť nad Oslavou, but hope to see you next time you're here, which I hope will be soon. Your music is truly beautiful.

hey tim. man i still love your music. the beat in your music is very good. keep up the good work my friend.
Accordeonaire | June 27, 2008
Tim, you and yours have been an inspiration to me since I saw you in the early '90s at the Cedar Cultural Center. Now, I've got everything that's out there and I'm passing it on to my kids. In the car: "Dad, can we listen to Cordelia's Dad?" Thank you.
edratliff | June 06, 2008
You should try to do some shows closer to Kentucky. We love good music!
e4rebakerusmc | May 30, 2008
Tim glad to see your doing very well in life. You have come along way since High school. Keep up the great work. My family and I enjoy listening to your music. Drop me a line if your ever in Chicago. Take care.
metalfab81 | May 10, 2008
tim ur blowin my mind!!!!! i was wondering if u do ne bluegrass festivals in cape breton????
Numestar | April 27, 2008
I absolutely love your song 'Hope'. Particularly in the youtube video, with the crickets in the background, it gave it an eerie vibe that compliments the lyrics. I hope the best for you and your career as the brilliant musician you are. You are a legend in my book already, keep on inspiring brother, your albums will sell through the roof in this uninspiring society. God bless!!
