Tim Barry Australian Tour 2011
Tim Barry’s been kicking around the musical underground for nearly 20 years, first as the front man for Virginia punk heroes Avail, and more recently as a singer-songwriter with a penchant for constructing beautiful folk and country tunes. Tim’s been particularly busy the past few years, gigging relentlessly, including a couple months both here and overseas on the inaugural Revival Tour with fellow travelers Chuck Ragan, Ben Nichols, and Frank Turner, as well as supporting Against Me! and The Gaslight Anthem internationally. All this while managing to generate a steady stream of recordings including a split 7” EP with pal Frank Turner and his most recent release 28th and Stonewall, Barry’s third full length recording, a masterful collection of heartsick dirges, wry commentary, and upbeat stomp-alongs. Tim Barry will be returning this April for a run of dates supported by Chris Wollard and Addison Burns. Tickets are on sale January 14.
