Act profile
Tim is well known on the London circuit having played most bars and clubs over the past ten years. He is well respected not only by the clients he has performed for, but also from other musicians around the country. Extremely talented on guitar and with an amazing vocal sound Tim can perform acoustically or with full backing tracks.
Having enjoyed early success in the music industry back in his home town of Melbourne in the late 80s, Tim is now a sought after session player, engineer and producer whose relaxed, humorous, natural style has brought him much acclaim.
Tim's main influences - apart from Australian Rock and Jazz artists - are the likes of Prince, Incognito, James Taylor, Jose Feliciano, and, more recently, John Butler Trio.
Tim is equally at home playing at intimate, exclusive private parties or to thousands of party-goers for example at the Clapham Common 'Toast' festivals.
Also included
A PA system catering for up to 500 people can be supplied as well as on stage and dance floor lighting.

Testimonials
"...another act had let me down days before my girlfriend's 30th birthday party; panicking and desperate a friend put me in contact with the agency who sourced a fantastic replacement (even swapping bands and venues to help me out) - Tim Barton was awesome, he pandered to requests and we even got some Guns'n'Roses karaoke style. It really did save my bacon and we are now going to book Tim again for our Wedding in 2009!"
“To Martha and Amelia, love Sinead (Fame Academy), I think your Uncle Tim is awesome”
