Biography
Raised in a small town in Northern California, Terrific Records recording artist
Timothy A. Johnson has been singing and playing multiple instruments since the age of 6. He is proficient on the bass, acoustic guitar, trumpet, French horn, and a modern guitar-like instrument called the Chapman Stick. As a professional musician, he has played many high end orchestral engagements, most notably with the Yes Symphony, the Las Vegas Philharmonic, Andrea Bocelli, and the late Luciano Pavarotti. Although a trained classical musician, Tim’s real love and strength is country music.
“Country music fans are the greatest fans in the world, and I want to share my talents with the best audiences,” says TJ. “I made my first trip to Nashville a couple of years ago and ever since, I am completely converted. There is a certain vibrancy and an energy in country music that doesn’t exist in any other genre. For me, it’s a no brainer.”
“People think that Country means southern. I want folks to know that my hometown (Lakeport, CA, pop. 3500) is about as country as it gets. When you grow up in the middle of pear and walnut orchards, surrounded by cattle and horse ranches, you can’t really call it anything but country.” This is where the term California Country comes into play.
Tim’s dynamic presence and musical talent are evident immediately from the first notes. His show, whether performing as a solo artist or with his band, is an energetic presentation, designed for maximum enjoyment by all.
