A Storyteller at heart, Calgary hometown lad singer/songwriter Tim Gareau cares deeply for his audience and is compelled to share his musical gift wherever and whenever the opportunity presents itself. Crafting hopeful lyrics from real-life experiences and bringing them to life with spirited guitar, his songs take you on a journey of discovery, which is at times deep and thought provoking, sometimes wacky and fun…. and always relatable. “Despite the crazy times we live in, if we search our hearts, life is good, there is always hope, and there is always opportunity for joy, peace, and love” says Gareau. This message leaves his listeners feeling swept away, satisfied, and hopeful. Whether Tim is performing solo, with his guitar and the odd harmonica accompaniment, or surrounded by fellow musicians, it’s all about authentic connection, creating something joyful, and drawing his audience into the fold. Tim’s songs take on many flavours strongly influenced by the folk and rock sounds of the 60s and 70s created by the Beatles, Simon and Garfunkel, Cat Stevens, Van Morrison.... and his further love of everything from jazz, roots, country, and blues. Tim’s latest release “Great Late Bloomer” has become a fast favourite with his friends and followers, and is the foundation for his upcoming 2024 ramble in Western Canada.
