“Mister Tim is taking beat boxing and a cappella performance to the next technological level. It’s just amazing what he can do in a live performance! Every sound, instrument, note and word comes from his voice.”
-Starfest (Denver, CO SciFi/Fantasy Convention)“[Mister Tim] sings in over a dozen different musical groups, but it is in his solo ‘live-looping’ show that he gets to show off the breadth and depth of his writing and performing skill.”
-DowntownBoulder.com"He was FANTASTIC. His music is original and brilliant and he has a natural presence on stage that draws the audience's attention to him." -Alec, fan, Provo, UT

Review of Mister Tim performance June 16, 2010, from Marisa Debowsky and Amy Malkoff of The Contemporary A Cappella Society
(original review here: http://www.casa.org/node/7809)
Marisa: Very theatrical, in an understated way; SUPER smooth transitions
Amy: Yeah, it’s very clear almost immediately that he is not improv-ing here, at least not for the most part. These are compositions, charted and tight, that he performs this way (or close to it) each time.
Marisa: He shows incredible range: he does a pop song (“Billy Jean”), dirty bass (“I’ve seen zombies in the street…”), buzzed bass and more macabre lyrics (with Indian-sounding B section?), bouncy-but-creepy disco with whisper (“cupcakes can kill you if they’re made of death / fear the cupcakes, the cupcakes are coming…”), story-song (“make my cornflakes taste like sadness…”), and back to pop mashup (“Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This”)
Amy: I wrote the word “macabre” too. I suspect Tim will take that as the compliment it’s meant to be! I think Tim is one of the best lyricists in the a cappella world today. He’s definitely taking chances. I can’t wait to see how he progresses as a solo act.
Marisa: Overall, uber-impressive as an act – polished, and dark, and fun
