About the Artist:

Tim Easton is influenced by a combination of pop icons and bluegrass/folk legends from his brother’s and sister’s vinyl collections, Easton found himself busking the streets of Europe on and off for seven years, returning to the USA to record his first solo album in Nashville. He signed with EMI Publishing in 1999, relocated to Los Angeles, performed at songwriter hubs like Largo, and signed a recording contract with New West Records. His first release for the label was 2001's The Truth About Us, featuring three members of WILCO as the backing band. Next came “Break Your Mother's Heart,” garnering 4 stars in the print version of Rolling Stone and heralding his songwriting as having a “novelist’s sense of humanity.” World tours have continued for over twenty years. Several albums have been released after a relocation from Joshua Tree to Nashville where he signed with Thirty Tigers and Oklahoma’s BLACK MESA RECORDS. A full discography is on TimEaston.com 130 original songs are on his Spotify page and four books of poetry/essays are available.
