Tim Eriksen Residency
“Arts Council of Tamworth brought Tim Eriksen just as our town is preparing to celebrate its 250th anniversary. I can’t think of a more appropriate musician to celebrate the complex history of this area’s music. I attended both the workshop and performance: at both, Tim Eriksen made us appreciate the turbulent, adventurous and apocalyptic forces that shaped the songs he performs. I left with new music from an older time, and a fascinating glimpse into our New England heritage. ” -Allie Kaplan-Thompson
