Description
Tim O'Brien is a self-taught multi-instrumentalist of rare ability, and also a songwriter with a great talent. Over the last two decades or so he has made a lasting impact on the American music scene, noted for his incredible musicianship and a wide range of styles.
Though he first won renown as a member of one of bluegrass’s premiere bands, Hot Rize, O’Brien’s been doing solo performances for a long time, and pressed for antecedents, he offers up figures like James Taylor and Joni Mitchell. "The folksinger with a guitar is a sort of unassailable icon,” he says with a laugh. “Dylan, Woody Guthrie - what can you say. And I remember that when I heard the first Doc Watson album, I thought, what does he need a band for? This guy has got it all. But what happens is that when you go into the studio, you can play with a band and get the juices flowing and maybe do things that you might not be able to do on the road. So there’s a temptation to go that way." With a Grammy and numerous other awards under his belt, Tim O'Brien is now recognised as one of the finest purveyors of Americana and Bluegrass.
