I love music. I am a music fan. I think music is one of the greatest gifts given to us. I feel incredibly fortunate to have been able to make music and to have songwriting to process my mistakes, my victories, my losses, my life and the lives I have connected with. I find it horribly annoying when I hear a musician complain about the music life. Get over it and get over yourself. The gift is the song. Nobody owes you anything! Being any kind of artist means being willing to sacrifice for your art. Who’s going to believe in your art, if you don’t believe in it first? That should never change. To me it feels like home to perform live and to sing my song for people. I am just as happy playing for 10 people or 10,000, driving to the corner café or a 1000 mile drive to a concert hall. Some of my favorite shows have been seaside, bonfires for stage lights, playing for old friends and making new ones. If I could, I’d like to ask of you a favor. I’m an indie musician. Which means I get to make the music I want to for me and my fans. Unfortunately, it also means I don’t have a giant marketing budget to stay in your consciousness. But I really want to stay in your world and I’m hoping you want to stay in mine. So, here is the favor. Use one of the links on this page to get over to wherever you download music (iTunes, Amazon, etc.) and PLEASE give one of my songs a chance and download it. Let me hang out for awhile in your life’s soundtrack and let’s just see what happens. I’m looking for fans and friends of my music, people who think for themselves and support an artist because they champion the music. I want people that’ll taste the highs and lows together with me and won’t just tell me what they think I want to hear but tell me what they REALLY want to say. I’ve never stopped learning from people and that’s what makes my music grow.
Lang started this little musical journey with guitar lessons from a red-headed Elvis impersonator named Red Raven. "I was just a kid, but he taught me about legends like Roy Orbison, Johnny Cash, and Elvis...and he was a great guy. When my family had little money to afford lessons for me, he gave me lessons for free," states Lang. Jump forward a few years, and Lang's current project has him teaming up with producer Scott Mathews, a multi-Grammy Award winner. The result is OKAY NOW, a riveting set of songs that share a passion missing in much of today’s releases. Songs like ‘Last Day’ and ‘Heaven’s Lips’ are hauntingly honest. When Tim’s rich voice hits the chorus of ‘Butterfly’ you’ll decide to take the long way home to play this album through. By the finale, ‘Beautiful in the Rain’ you'll forget home all together and head for a coast… like Lang did to write these songs. His life living on the Pacific in Mexico brings a salty vibe to his music. You get the feeling this brooding surfer gets inspiration from bonfires on the beach and a different speed of life. The production on OKAY NOW complements this candid songwriting. Sparse strings and melodic keyboards sing in and out. Guitars pulse like a heartbeat and the drums engage like waves. All float underneath the passionate vocals that sing instantly accessible lyrics.
