Tim Williams / Tim Isberg [LIVESTREAM]

Tim Williams

Since relocating to Calgary after having come of age honing his skills in the coffee houses of Southern California, Tim Williams has long since established himself as Canada’s premier exponent of acoustic blues. Recognition of his instrumental mastery and his deep roots in the blues genre have come in the form of multiple awards and honours, culminating in 2014 when he won the 30^th International Blues Challenge in Memphis.  His 2018 recording project Corazones y Murallas (Hearts and High Walls) found him collaborating with the cantina band Tremoloco to explore the heavy Mexican influences on his diverse musical roots.

First Up: Tim Isberg

All singer-songwriters draw on their life experiences, but not too many get to draw on military service in Afghanistan and Rwanda for inspiration. Sincerity, empathy and humanity are hallmarks of Tim Isberg’s oeuvre and stage presence, as is his love for Alberta that runs through songs like “Come Hell or High River.”  Check out his latest release Running on the Edge (2019). https://timisberg.com
