A beloved fixture in the Boston music scene for more than 25 years, Tim Gearan has become a bonafide local music hero. His warm, raspy baritone, jaw-dropping guitar skills and wry, poignant songwriting have graced the bars, pubs, and music halls throughout New England, creating a loyal cult-like following. Gearan, a New York native, started his career as a lead blues guitarist, spending ten years touring as a sideman for the great Toni Lynn Washington, as well as collaborating with the Grammy-winning singer/guitarist Susan Tedeschi. Finding his own artistic voice, Gearan settled in Somerville and began writing and performing on his own, crafting an intoxicating blend of Americana, folk and blues with shades of Randy Newman, Tom Waits, JJ Cale, Leon Russell and Lowell George. He quickly established himself as a force in the Boston’s resurgent roots music scene, and his Boston area residencies have become a “can’t miss” staple of the city’s nightlife. Gearan has released 7 albums to date, with the most recent entitled "I Thought You Were Somebody Else" released in the summer of 2019.

Tim continues his collaboration with producer Dave Westner, resulting in the release of 4 singles so far; “While the World Goes By” and “It’s Not the End of the World” and most recently, “Hey, Hey, Hey” and “Talk About Heaven” all of which are available where ever you buy music.
