What a great year for the TCB! Plenty of packed shows, press in all the Nashville papers & magazines, airplay on radio Lightning 100 and alot of great new songs in the set written by Timothy and his writing partners (Billy Falcon, Amanda Williams, Sandy Romas, Michael Joyce & Jay Lansky). Timothy is even back in the studio recording some of the new tunes with Tom Harding. Thanks Colin, John and Michael for playing with Timothy all year, YOU ROCK! I also want to thank everyone for packing each and every show, it's really great to hear all of you singing the words to your favorite TCB songs. This last show of the year on Dec. 12th was certainly no exception. The band opened with "Can't You Feel My Heart" went into "Real Big Love", "Close Enough For Me", "You Got It" and wrapped up the set with "She's All About The Beat". It was a really fun holiday show with friends like Billy and Rose Falcon doing a set as well. I also want to thank Chet Creswell and the rest of the TCB Street Team for your support all year and the "YOU GOT IT GIRLS" (Selena Givens, Aliecia Landry, Marjorie Lee & Keri Wendel) we hear you gals loud and clear! Timothy has only been back in Nashville for a year and has already made his mark on the Nashville music scene. I'm really looking forward to seeing and hearing what 2007 will bring.
Have a Safe and Happy Holiday! -Amy C.-
Thanks everyone once again for packing 12th & Porter on November 7th.! Another super cool show from the TCB! The band line up and songs were the same as the last show, but I say "if it ain't broke , don't fix it"! I also want to thank All The Rage magazine for their huge, color picture of Timothy they printed the week of the show. A big shout out as well to Billy Block for putting Timothy on the cover of the November issue of Western Beat magazine. Check it all out by clicking on our press/reviews page.
It certainly turned out to be a big November and I hope everyone can make it out to Timothy's final show of the year on December 12th.

What happens when you mix a great band (John, Michael, Colin & Timothy) with great songs, add in a packed house and the amazing sound system of 12th & Porter? The Perfect Show of course! The October 10th (Billy Block's Western Beat) set list consists of some of the newest material except for "Ice Cold" which is from Timothy's third album "State Line".
1. She's All About The Beat
2. You Got It
3. Ice Cold
4. Real Big Love
5. That's Close Enough For Me
Timothy gave away plenty of free T-Shirts and CD samplers which seem to disappear quickly. Thanks everyone who made it out Tuesday and I hope to see you all soon on Nov. 7th.!
Speaking of mixes, Timothy is currently in the Studio with Tom Harding recording four new songs: She's All About The Beat, You Got It, Real Big Love and Close Enough For Me. The studio is called "Tombstone" and is owned and operated by rocker Tom Harding. Timothy used his own band to record the new material and will be working on the tracks over the next month.
It truly was the Perfect Mix and a Perfect Show! -Amy C.-
The show at Douglas Corner Cafe on Saturday, August 26th. was awesome of course and the band debuted two more brand new songs. The first tune was called "Got Good Friends" and was written by Timothy, Billy and Billy's daughter Rose Falcon. The second new song was called "She's All About The Beat" written by just Timothy and Billy Falcon. It seems every show we get to hear some new stuff and both of these songs got a huge response! The band rocked out with Michael on bass, John on drums and Colin on lead guitar. ANOTHER KICK ASS SHOW !
The band was also invited to play yet another show at 12th & Porter (Billy Block's Western Beat) on Tuesday September, 12th. The band kicked off the set with "She's All About The Beat", "You Got It" then went into "Don't Walk Away", "Real Big Love" and segued into "Close Enough for Me". Wayne Killius sat in for John on drums and did an amazing job! Thanks Wayne, you really sounded great! Once again it was very crowded and there were lots of folks singing the words to all the songs. Thanks Billy Block for inviting the band to perform at your show again and we are looking forward to the gig on October 10th.
Rocktober Baby! -Amy C.-
The band rocked Douglas Corner again on Saturday, July 8th. in front of yet another cranked up crowd! The band line up included Donny, John, Michael and of course Timothy. This was Michaels first show holding down the fort on backup vocals. The band has had girls singing backup for the past several shows, but as long as Michaels in the band the only girls we will be seeing will be in front of the stage. Great job Michael! The song set was pretty much the same as the last show except for the brand new song "Real Big Love", which they played at the end of the show. "Real Big Love" was written by Michael Joyce, Jay Lansky and Timothy and went over really big, we got alot of great feedback from that new tune. Thanks again to All The Rage magazine for plugging the show again with a nice write up on Timothy!
Now, the show at 12th & Porter (Billy Block's Western Beat) on Tuesday July, 18th. was a slamming set! Every Tuesday Billy Block has his own show with several performers playing about five songs. They are all taped and broadcast on the radio at a later date. Timothy opened with "Real Big Love" then played "The Closer I Get", "One Small Miracle", "You Got It" and "Crime of the Century" to end the short set. I have never received so many emails, my space messages, phone calls and text messages about the bands performance than I have for this show! This show was amazing and so was the huge crowd that came to hear Timothy. To look around and see so many people singing the words to all the songs and buying CD's is just pretty damn cool! Thanks Billy Block for inviting the band to perform at your show and for printing a nice segment on Timothy in your Western Beat magazine! Click on our Press/Reviews button to check it out. I also want to thank Colin Whinnery for filling in for Donny Roberts on lead guitar. With Donny still living in Phoenix, I'm sure we will be seeing alot more of you. With such short notice you really pulled it all together and threw it down. You were really great! Finally, another big shout out to Chet Creswell and the rest of the TCB Street team! All your help and enthusiasium really does makes a big difference.
Well, it seems the Nashville fireworks wasn't the only hot and spectacular show in July! -Amy C.-
Thanks Dottie Hilleary for the photo's taken at 12th & Porter!
The 6pm early matinee show at Douglas Corner Cafe on Saturday was a good call! There were a lot of people there to check out the band who couldn't make it out to other previous late night shows. Timothy even made sure that everyone that walked through the door received a free T-Shirt! The band (Donny, Michael, John and brand new back-up singer Suzanne Wyatt) really sounded amazing! Thanks Suzanne for doing such a great job so soon, it's nice to have you aboard. The band seems to be adding awesome new songs every show, this set included: "Can't You Feel My Heart", "The Closer I Get", "State Line", "Don't Walk Away", "One Small Miracle", "Not Done Yet", "You Got It", "Learning to Live Without You", "Crime of the Century" and a brand new song called "Close Enough For Me". Everybody really loved "Close Enough For Me" written by Timothy and Amanda Williams, as well as the other two new songs "Not Done Yet" and "You Got It". Every song in this ten song set is really strong! Thanks Chet Creswell for all your assistance at the show once again. I can see your still wearing a bunch of hats, but wearing them well!
Thanks JB Bruck and the Nashville Music Guide magazine for your in depth interview with Timothy in the May issue, I even learned a bunch of new stuff myself. It was a very, very cool interview! Check it out by clicking on our Press/Reviews button.
I know I've said this a million times, but this show was the best I've seen yet!
May Kicked Ass! -Amy C.-
Thank You Lightning 100!
Nashville based Radio Station Lightning 100 featured Timothy on their Local Lightning Spotlight last week starting Monday, April 10th through Sunday, April 16th. He was on rotation all week... rotating at 2:40pm and 8:40pm. Timothy was also featured on the Sunday night "Rewind" show at 8:40pm. The station played the song “Can't You Feel My Heart” from Timothy’s new album “Grand References”. It was very cool not only to hear Timothy's music on the radio, but also to get such a great response from friends, fans and Lightning 100 listeners!
The show in Shreveport, LA (The Holiday In Dixie Festival) opening for Bryan White over the weekend went over really big! The band rocked the big tent on Saturday with an eleven song set! After Bryan White's set was over he was presented with his old car that he drove in to Nashville several years ago. Of course, thanks to one of the festival sponsors C & C Automotive, it was fully restored. Bryan seemed to be really excited about seeing his old car, it must of brought back alot of memories. Thanks C & C Automotive for all the hospitality while the TCB was in town! I also want to thank Chet from the TCB Street team for wearing so many hats in Shreveport, from Merchandise, Road Manager, Therapist, Comedian and everything in between. It was great to have you on board the TCB Express to Louisiana!
On a sad note, I want to say goodbye to our backup singer Kylee Seil. Kylee is moving back home to North Dakota in May. Kylee has been working with Tim and has performed at all the Nashville shows this year. She is always happy, professional and a pleasure to be around, not to mention a very talented singer! Thanks Kylee for lending your talent and being a great band member. You will surely be missed!
Lots of good stuff this month, I wonder what's in store for May! -Amy C.-
Another awesome show in front of yet another full house! The band line up was the same as the last show (minus the keyboards) and cranked through a killer eleven song set. They opened with “Can’t You Feel My Heart” ripped into “The Closer I Get”, “State Line”, “Don’t Walk Away”, “One Small Miracle” and then two brand new songs which were co-written by Timothy and his buddy Billy Falcon. The first tune was called “Not Done Yet” and performed by just Timothy, Kylee and Donny. The second new song was called “You Got It” which the whole band performed. Both of these new songs are amazing and I can assure you that they will be included in the set for the next several shows! The band then played “Crime of the Century”, “Learning to Live Without You”, “Hearts Overheated” and ended with “Let Me Go”. Very, Very Cool !!!
A shout out to the TCB Street Team: Chet, Beth, Bill and Marjorie for your Continuous support!

Good Times! -Amy C.-
First of all I've got to give out a BIG, BIG THANKS to everyone for making it out on Saturday night! Douglas Corner is a larger room than The Basement and you still packed it out! The band line up for this show was the same as the Basement show except John Mcteige was on drums(John played on Tim's "Rip, Roll & Ride!" and "State Line" CD's) and Donny "The Twangler" Roberts was in the house on lead guitar. Donny is most known for his awesome guitar work with Webb Wilder and for playing on Steve Earle's "Copperhead Road" album. Donny also did all the lead guitar work on Timothy's last three albums. Donny currently lives in Phoenix, AZ and was gracious enough to make the trip to Nashvegas.
I think this was the best I've seen the band perform so far! It certainly doesn't hurt any when their playing for a rowdy crowd that loves Tim's music. It's also great to see new people buying CD's and being enthusiastic enough to want them autographed! The set was a mix of songs pulled from all of Timothy's albums and really kicked ass!
Thanks again Sam for all your help on the merchandise. I also want to thank All The Rage magazine again for their very cool write up on Tim. It certainly helped promote the show!
See ya soon! -Amy C.-
The Basement...
Great show at the Basement Wednesday night and thanks everyone for packing the house! The band included Wayne Killius on drums, Michael Joyce on Bass, Philip Shouse on guitar, Jeff Armstrong on keyboards, Kylee Seil on backup vocals and Sam Maristuen on merchandise. The band rocked and rolled through seven songs from the “Grand References” album, a song from the “State Line” CD and four tunes from the “Rip, Roll & Ride!” album.
The actual set list:
| 1. CAN’T YOU FEEL MY HEART 2. I’M DOIN’ ALRIGHT 3. THE CLOSER I GET 4. STATE LINE 5. ONE SMALL MIRACLE 6. DON’T WALK AWAY |
7. YOUNGER DAY 8. CRIME OF THE CENTURY 9. LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU 10. HEARTS OVERHEATED 11. LET ME GO 12. SMELL THE ROSES (which was totally unplanned) |
Everyone seemed to be having a lot of fun on and off the stage. When the show was finished some members of the crowd, including Chet Creswell and Beth Brazil, starting screaming for Tim to play the song “Smell the Roses”, so Tim grabbed his acoustic guitar and gave us a special unplugged solo performance of the song. This went over really big and was the perfect way to wrap up an already awesome night.
A special thanks goes out to The City Paper (Nashville’s Daily Newspaper) for plugging Timothy’s show and printing such a large color photo! Thanks to All The Rage magazine for plugging the show as well! Check it all out on our Press and Reviews page!
What a great way to kick off the new year in Nashville! -Amy C.-
