[edit]Biography

With roots in the Midwest, Williams' music career began in Boston, MA with a self-released EP "Songs For the Commute". After one year in Boston, Williams moved to New York and immediately began writing and recording a second release while staying at the Hotel Chelsea. These sessions turned into his two subsequent albums, "8/18 Chelsea Sessions" and "Tales of Digression" which would soon after become the first two releases on the Dovecote Records label.
Williams supported these releases playing small clubs and venues in the US and UK. In 2004 he met London-based producer Dave Lynch during a showcase at the CMJ festival in New York. Lynch offered to record Williams' next record if he ever found himself in the UK again. In November, 2005 Williams moved in with friends in Eastbourne, England and began writing and recording with Lynch. The resulting album ("When Work Is Done") marked Williams first release with national exposure. He embarked on multiple tours making stops at South By Southwest, CMJ, and the Sundance Film Festival. His video for "Novel" won MTV's weekly video contest The Freshman.
Tim Williams' third studio album Careful Love should be approached with a few more personal facts in mind: he wrote it after open heart surgery, while in love, and displaced from Brooklyn to California. Careful Love was released this past October on Dovecote Records.[1]
Tim Williams is a Philadelphia-based Indie-Rock Singer/Songwriter. He has performed with International Acts Of Monsters and Men, Ryan Star, Diane Birch, JJAMZ and Jeffrey Gaines. Springing to popularity in large part thanks to Radio 104.5, he is also the house musician for the National Radio Program MyFixitUpLife. With MyFixitUpLife, he has toured the nation with Extreme Makeover: Home Edition - most noteably the show's 200th and final episode in Joplin, MO in which Tim helped rebuild the tornado ravaged community while playing music for the cast and volunteers.
Additional Television appearances include The Food Network's Restaurant: Impossible, NBC's The 10! Show and PHL17's Eye Opener. He was also seen in the Major Motion Picture Invincible. He plays music before Philadelphia Phillies home games at Citizen's Bank Park.
He was a finalist in Wawa's Welcome America Singer/Songwriter Contest in 2011. His debut EP We Begin was released on July 1, 2009 and is available on iTunes. His second album and first full length, Blue Ribbon, was released on September 26, 2012.
