All songs recorded by Tim with Aeden Hunter on bass, Kevin Miller on keyboards, and Mark Dodge on guitar and drums. Tim has written beautiful tunes with tasteful lyricism and memorable themes, and displays formidable jazz chops. "A massive album on a little label. It is our duty to tell the world. This is a truly beautiful album and I think it might be a truly great album ... It's a very soulful album but definitely not a smooth jazz outing ... An all round joy and one of my most satisfying discoveries." - The Reverend Jonathan Hagger (on CD Baby) Buy the CD ($13): Click here for other places to buy Jazz From the Camano Shore - Song List Click a linked title to hear a 45-second sample MP3 (approx. 500K) Number 516 (T.
