“…a quirky cocktail of blues, jazz, funk, and more… THE VIBES create electrifying all-original output.. compositions that revolve around rhythm and groove, catchy melodies and timeless quality. Tim’s records to date have been nothing shortly of mesmerising, packed to the rafters with intent and drive“

“The composition is fantastic taking twists and turns through the bluesy chorus and the aggressive vibe of the verse sections. The guitar work is phenomenal! You’ll be able to hear new details on every listen! Tim’s songwriting skills are out of this world as he writes about climate change in such an enjoyable fashion!”
