      PRESS RELEASE: timholehouse.com/contact-2/
      The archetypal image of a bluesman, outcast from proper society and stalked by personal demons. The defining characteristic of Delta blues is instrumentation and an emphasis on rhythm and "bottleneck" slide. When Holehouse arrived in a new town, he would play for tips on street corners or in front of the local barbershop or a restaurant. Holehouse also had an uncanny ability to establish a rapport with his audience - in every town in which he stopped, Holehouse would establish ties to the local community that would serve him well when he passed through again a month or a year later. Ok these things where written about Delta Blues Musicians of the 1920's and 1930's but sums up what i am trying to do now. I travel I play music for music's sake. It has its roots in the delta blues with my own personal twist on it. I live by my rules and those rules are best summed up by something a friend of mine from Winnipeg told me once. Creativity, Adventure and People. Things I will not do Appear in my own music videos! Have my name or face on a shirt! Sell my soul! I enjoy playing music, if you want me to come to your town play get in touch. Let the good times roll!

      Of course apart from the confirmed ones these are all flexible and the Uk certainly isnt as big as mainland europe. Let me know what you think and if you can help me that would be great.

      Kind regards

      Tim

    • On my third pair of shoes funnily enough, cowboy boots broke in July, then in september my mrs made me ditch my trainers. Now Im on a pair of czech trainer that despite their horrid look (cheap they where) are holding up nicely. Also destroyed one pair of trousers and my jumper is holding on for dear life. I now know why lightning bolt look like they do.
      Yes a beer would be smashing sir... and love to the other koreshies.
