Tim Isberg Sunday March 22, 2020

We have only good fortune with the next series Sunday March 22 TIM ISBERG brings his trio our way as they close off a fast Southern Alberta tour with us & will be a Sunday afternoon NOT to be missed (BBQ incl w/seat)

Originally from southern Alberta, Tim Isberg is an accomplished singer-songwriter and ACMA Male Artist of the Year nominee who is emerging in the scene after a lengthy hiatus to serve in the Canadian Army. From Rwanda to Afghanistan, Tim experienced the personal challenges while deployed in different cultures and conflicts, and amid the best and worst humanity has to offer.

““There’s something to be said for a guy who can whip out a battered acoustic guitar and share a little something with listeners that makes them think or feel something out of their ordinary sphere… Tim Isberg, take a bow…Tim has a grasp of what goes on with a guitar neck and his smart chord progressions and capable playing caught my ear right away… he’s got a good voice, and it’s obvious he’s put a lot of thought into his melodies”  –  Simon Harrison – Star News

Tim’s solid guitar rhythms and ear-catching songs create a style of his own where listeners can escape into the story behind the song.
