Hey I'm Tim. I'm 25 and I live in Orlando, FL with wife/best friend Meredith, and our trouble-making but still adorable little girl Melody. We're very excited about the new addition to our family (Well...Meredith and I are excited, we're not so sure about the little one). We found out we'll be having a boy who we're naming Paul after my dad. We're expecting the new little bundle of joy sometime around January 3.
Well this is a MySpace music page, so I guess I should probably talk about music huh? I've been leading worship in various places over the last 9 years or so, sometimes as a member of a band and also just on my own with a guitar or piano. Now whenever I did have a band to play with, I've always aimed to try something different than you'd normally hear on your typical Christian radio station. That's been everything from Dylanesque Americana to Cream inspired trio jams, but the aim was always to use our musical gifts to point towards Jesus Christ. Right now, I'm working with a group of young musicians from my church, trying to teach them about what it means to be a worship leader. As a member of each of these groups, I made it a habit to record as much material as I could and those recordings are what you'll find here. You can also follow the links below to see some videos of these groups...
