About
Tim
Lothar:
Six
years ago, after 25 years behind his drum kit, Tim Lothar began
cultivating singing and playing acoustic guitar to explore classic
American Delta Blues. With an indisputable talent and great musical
insight Tim began a whole new career as a solo performer, and very
quickly issued his debut-CD, ”Cut To The Bone” in 2006.
The
CD received raving and enthusiastic reviews at home and abroad, for
instance:
*
”A guitar player with Blues in his blood”.
* ”A new European blues act with class”
* ”A CD to classify in your acoustic blues collection next to the big
ones, very big ones”
The
CD really boosted things, and since then Tim has reaped experience and
inspiration from his intense touring all over Europe On his recent,
second issue, ”In It For The Ride”, Tim still explores the Mississippi
Blues, but also contributes with his own strong compositions and deep,
personal interpretaions of the old blues classics.
In
September 2008, Tim was handed the prestigious award Danish Blues
Artist of the Year, an award that have also been handed to artits like
Thorbjorn Risager and Mike Andersen.
Leading
British magazine Blues Matters wrote this: ”Tim Lothar’s own
songwriting is so good, you have to read the credits to discover
whether a song is an original or yet another from Sleepy John Estes or
Charley Patton”.
In
March 2009, Tim was handed his second award, Danish Blues Album of the
Year, at Danish Music Awards 2009 - the danish "Grammy Awards".
Tim
tours constantly, and have performed in nine countries so far, playing
festivals and venues.
