Growing up I listened to Ray Charles, B.B., Motown, the Beatles and so many others, I was hooked.

I spent my younger days as a road dog, performing as a solo act and in bands, playing honky tonks, hotel lounges and dive bars across the U.S. and Canada.

These days I am writing and recording new material and enjoy performing in interesting configurations from solo, duo, or the full-tilt TimHunterBand.

Solo

Performing solo allows me the freedom to turn on a dime and react to the moment, to try out new things, draw from my catalogue of original material or pay homage to some of my musical influences from jazz standards to country, Motown, folk and classic rock.

Duo

I have the exquisite pleasure of performing as the duo “Watt? & Hay!” with my good friend Tom Russell. Tom is a well loved musical giant of the northwest music scene. For over 40 years he has delighted audiences with brilliant, soulful expressions on the clarinet, flute, and baritone sax. Toms’ playful, comedic stage presence has brought joy to thousands.

Together we play some of our favorites, we improvise, and we have infectious fun.
