I first saw Timothy, a local musician performing at Two Boots a few weeks ago. I was drinking beer, eating a vegan pizza (which was delicious btw) mingling with new JC friends and then he started singing…. I stopped short. His voice is so soulful and unique…. It’s truly amazing! It’s the kind of voice that gives you goosebumps.
Timothy is really talented and I love his laid back style, but the cherry on the cake is that he is a sweetheart. He has a such positive energy about him; he is polite, enthusiastic and made me feel like we where close friends. We met at The Warehouse here in Jersey City (post coming soon!!) and he came with his guitar to sing us a tune! I am so lucky!!
