Tim O’Brien
Traveler
(Sugar Hill)
Tim O’Brien sings with a richness and honesty that travels from his soul to yours. Talent oozes from this bluegrass crooner, with his mandolin, bou- zouki, guitar and voice. He’s recruited stellar musicians such as Bela Fleck, Dirk Powell and John Doyle to fill out his tunes. The tortured wrenching of “Let Love Take you Back Again” speaks of the difficult, necessary act of opening your heart to love. Sit back, close your eyes and meander a bit with this Traveler—you’ll return changed.
—Norma Jean MacPhee
