Born in Denmark, Tim started his musical career as a drummer. After 25 years behind his drum kit, he began developing his singing and taught himself to play acoustic guitar in order to explore classic American Delta Blues.
With an indisputable talent and great musical insight, Lothar began a whole new career as a solo performer, and very quickly issued his debut-CD, Cut To The Bone, in 2006. The CD received enthusiastic reviews at home and abroad. His 2008 release won the award "Best Danish Blues Album" at Danish Music Awards ( the danish Grammy). Later that year he was handed another major Danish award: "Blues Artist of the Year".
Tim's touring schedule increased, playing festivals and venues all over Europe.
On stage, his way of becoming “one with the music” keeps fascinating his growing audience. Not to mention gifted storytelling, an astonishing voice, amazing guitar skills, along with clever songwriting.

"I was initially amazed at how quickly drummer Lothar picked up the guitar, but I'm equally blown away by his songwriting and singing. He has a thoroughly modern lyrical approach though the ground he's covering is fairly familiar to blues fans. This is an artist who deserves a bigger audience."
