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. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/Tim+Lothar+Petersen">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
