    Welcome to Tim Kelley’s new world. You may think you know TK from Beauty in the Flaws or Older and Wiser?, but Sans the Rocket will prove you wrong. Indeed, you’ll recognize Tim throughout this new release, but the world music crouched and pouncing in the story of a man flying away to find his love barreling through funk driven back beats and Andrews Sisters throwbacks forces the listener to reevaluate the too easy categorization of folk artist.

    Lest you fear too much a departure, worry not. Sin of Mine carries those dulcet tones and rich harmonies that has built the still growing fan base. And, much to my delight, the ukulele pops its small neck up here amongst scat and stacked vocals.

    Like previous works the lyrical content is strong and often contrasted in its approach. The repeated verse “I would like to apologize because I’m having a bad day” of Have We Met Before has such a pleasant lilt and tone that the love behind it completely overpowers the harsh admonition of the early lyric “you’re a waste of time.”

    This release is all you love of TK and more as he grows and expands his sound. This EP is well worth your time; just good luck on not repeating Sans the Rocket long enough to get to the tin guitar timbre and slow, mellow melody haunting Lullaby.

    Take a moment to sample Stuff and Things and then take two more to settle in and wrap yourself in the sound and world of Tim Kelley.

lyrics

What a small world, that we're back to this
given my current philosophies, you're a waste of time
what a small world ( after all ) inside your mind
It must be nice to have that kind of time


mouth breather, group needer, intelligent conversation eater right on time
go to bed, rest your head bah-diddly-dot and so they said but I don't buy it
( scat )
( don't stop to speak )
I would like to apologize because I'm having a bad day

If there's a blame the game's the same
imagine life without your name I'm violently
agitated unabated until your ass is vacated I need time
( scat )
( don't stop to speak )
I would like to apologize because I'm having a bad day

about

Tim Kelley Marietta, Georgia

Harmonies abound, transitions shift, and genres blend in Tim Kelley’s music. Behind the notes you’ll find the idealism that music can save your soul; that every experience is worth keeping, however painful, that redemption lies just somewhere around the corner, that age is a four letter word and fear is not worth the letters that make it up. ... more
