Tim Fast could be a character in one of the gems-of-a-song he writes and sings. He's a dust-covered man who has traveled the roads in search of whatever song is over the next rise. That sense of adventure has given him a catalog of great original songs that have touched audiences from coast to coast and all the way from his native Minnesota down to the Texas Gulf Coast.
"I know how to write a good song and know when it works but in the end, the audience lets me know," Tim says as his hands cradle a cup of coffee. A line like that might sound boastful coming from most people, but Tim is too disarming to come off that way. The proof that he has arrived as a touring musician comes in his 150-plus bookings a year and the fact celebrated songwriters like Cliff Eberhardt and James Keelaghan are big fans. Keelaghan said that besides being an "excellent songwriter," Tim has "the sweetest voice I've heard in a long time." High praise indeed.
