Influences
Absolutely LOVE the blues, killer players like Albert King and BB and the like. Clapton has some fantastic songs and I'm REALLY into the sounds of Delbert McClinton. I grew up and started taking my music serious in the "Southern Rock" era, bands like Marshall Tucker and the Allman Bros. are what I began with and still somewhat emulate to this day.

I LOVE TO ROCK and I LOVE HEAVEY BLUES!! I also write a lot on acoustic 12 & 6 string guitars, anything from light rock to country with lots of gospel influence. Then my super rockin' ass ol' buddy from WAY back Randy Neubert and I have been writing together off and on for too many damn years to remember. We have run the gamut in style. We sure do love good ol' hard drivin' Rock & Roll and are VERY guitar oriented although we do have a couple of awesome keyboard players we often write and record with.

Tim Chandler (TC) Singer / Songwriter / Entertainer
T.C. (Tim Chandler) has been playing, writing and producing music for over 30 years, a total professional in every sense of the word. Seems like he's ALWAYS been "the" Singer, and has playing the guitar since the tender age of 10, Tim elevated to bass guitar as well at 16 and after a short course in electronics in "TAMPA, FL" (U.E.I.) he began to pursue his music career. He started playing locally in the Macon, Georgia area with several extremely talented players and songwriters. A true LOVE for original music was born in him then and continues to this day. Tim was a co-founder of the touring/recording band "TRAVELER" who along with many recording sessions in such Landmark studios as "Quad-Radial Studios" in Miami, FL and the world famous CAPRICORN STUDIOS in Macon, GA which were produced by "Paul Hornsby" (Paul produced and played piano on ALL "the Marshall Tucker Band" records and also produced several "Charlie Daniels Band" records as well as MANY more) . Of course, Traveler was a GREAT live Rock & Roll band that performed ALL over the south and southeast from 1979 to 1984 including numerous concert dates and 5 years of "Spring Break" in Daytona at the biggest clubs of their era. While opening concerts for such greats as "the Atlanta Rhythm Section", the incomparable "Dixie Dregs", "the Greg Allman Band", "Wet Willie", "Hot Tuna", "Louisiana's Leroux", "Papa John Creech", "Doc Holiday" and countless others. After the band broke up in 84' he began to explore the "single" and "duo" scene. This friends, is where TIM CHANDLER "really" shines being a master of reading the crowd. He then moved into in the Bradenton/Sarasota FL area around 1984 and realized "this IS the life for me!" performed his single there and also performed primarily with his brother Farrell, "the Fabulous CHANDLER BROS. Duo/Band" who passed away in August of 2002, and FARRELL, we ALL miss you!! They were WELL known in this area and still loved by many to this day! They stayed there for 5 years and then moved to Chattanooga, Tennessee for 3 years to pursue more of their original song career options. Back to Bradenton for another 4 years when Tim decided go out on his own, back to his hometown of Macon, Georgia, in a phrase, "back to his roots". Here he started his ALL original/classic rock band *EXIT-37* with two former "Traveler" band members (George Hall / drums - and - Dennis Dimeler / guitar) and played in that band from 1996 to 2002 even though in the meantime the band dealt with the very untimely deaths of two of it's original members, George Hall the drummer and Terry Martin the bass player (may God rest their souls). As in many band situations, his band members all had regular jobs, families, children and life's obligations so being the "true" musician he is, TC continued to expand his Single Show into something that was really very special! Playing the blues from the heart, some KiLLer original music and playing/singing with so much soul, TC's single gigged all over the States of Georgia and Florida, brilliantly performing his Single Act at bars and pubs and at large private parties and weddings. TC and Randy are still writing daily and recording when time permits.
TIM CHANDLER (TC) is now gigging FULL TIME with "TC and the Trouble Makers" which has a c00L "my space" up and runnin' with ALL their current line up and gig dates. GREAT band, check em' out!
