Ontario's Tim Tibbitts plays a John Mayer brand of drama pop, using earnest 
vocals to catapult hooky, guitar-based tunes. But what stands out is the wise
use of jazzy flourishes such as agile acoustic guitar riffs and piano runs, which
give his songs an added layer of body and soul.


Phoenix Revolution.com Kristyn Cunningham:
His voice was beautiful enough to make me ache…Tim was honestly the only artist 
that night whose set I saw in its entirety, and the only one I honestly WANTED
to see. And he was fabulous. No. Phenomenal. His voice reverberated through the
Elmo like an angel's choir. He made people stop and stare.
 
Streetblast.com:
Just listening to the lyrics of “You got me” a few times, and I found myself some 
how singing along,really getting in to the song. It is a song that I feel any one
that has really cared about anyone, and been *&^%$ over can feel! But, It’s not
some whiney ass song about being dumped… it’s an upbeat positive song that offers
encouragement and a positive message. Tim Tibbitts is an artist that I would recommend
to anyone who loves acoustic guitar, great vocals, and amazing lyrics!
 
Soundclick.com-Ray Varela:
I'm listening to your music right now and I have read your band page interview at 
SC and I totally agree with you about the purpose of music, though there are many
these days, passion is what really turns people's heads! Music should cry out with
passion and your vocal certainly has volition and is laden with dynamics.
Tell Me and Time Has Come are both strong tracks but my favorite of the two is the
latter.... To sum it up, you should do really well with the CD, your music is well
written and you do have a powerful vocal style. I can't critique anything to much,
especially when it's near perfection in all aspects of songwriting and production!
Great lyrics too...........
 
New Rock Underground- Randy Haber:
With a soulful voice like honey and overall passionate presence, Tim Tibbitts can’t 
go wrong with these well produced tracks. Fans of Live, The Calling, Counting Crows
and similar artists will like this!
 
101 FM Logan City Australia Terry Neal: 
Tim Tibbits new album Portraits is a collection of a variety of folk/pop songs that 
range from the beautifully worded ballad "Tonight' to the harder edged "Turning
Around". The album is well produced and with a range of styles that keeps it
interesting and entertaining. You can't always tell where Tim is going to take a
song!! An album that gets better with each listen as you discover more of the complex
arrangements that go to make up some of the songs.
 
96.5 Inner FM Melbourne Australia Barry Wass: 
Tim Tibbitts Portraits sounds almost autobiographical in its contents. His voice 
seems to echo disapointments of dreams gone sour. Plaintive pleadings coupled with
bright periods make this an unusual but thoroughly enjoyable cd.
 
lonestar Radio Japan Tom Kawai: 
Some Jazzy, Some Country, Some Folky, but rock the cradle and power storm flows 
from his brain. It seems he is not only a singer/writer but actor of his own poetry.
Very promising.
 
Nambucca Valley Radio. 105.9fm Australila David McCrory: 
This CD is refreshing with a good beat a better voice and is really great for breakfast.
 
Soundclick.com reviews “Tell Me”-Steve Smith:
Let me preface my remarks by saying this song is too good for me to review. 
Nice guitar sounds and playing open this one with some interesting suspended
chord harmonies. The bass and vocal and piano and guitar sounds are superb, well
crafted, mixed and engineered. The writing is great - nice blend of instrumental
breaks and vocal lines. The pedal guitar work (volume/pedal) is superbly used as
a feature around 1:40 and the chorus builds around 1:50 to epic proportions.
Stunning bridge orchestral sounds at 2:20 - I'm reminded of "Iris" by the GooGooDolls
(favorable). The energy level builds and then wanes and the guitar noises
are immaculately placed in the mix. 3:16 brings us back to the opening mood, and
we see a masterful track conclude. If I venture any criticism, the vocals are a tad
"dry" in places - especially at the end and the beginning of the track where it is
most exposed. (This is me nitpicking to the extreme). This is among the best-crafted
commercial music you'll here on soundclick, or in fact anywhere. I could string
superlatives together and grasp for hyperbole, but instead I'll say one thing only:
Where can I buy the Tim Tibbitts CD?

Radio Heerde Netherlands-Jan Nederveen:
Tim Tibbitts is not the average mainstream singer. He has a vital, soulful voice and 
you had to listen to the songs to the end. When he sings, he is in your room.

Sounclick.com-Steve Gilmore "Tracks of the year 2005":

Tim Tibbitts - Tell Me/You Got Me
I was first introduced to Tim Tibbitts this year when I reviewed Tell Me, a simple song
that perfectly showcases exactly what makes this guy so special. Tim brings a rock
sensibilty to bear in making tracks that are something that goes way beyond mere genres.
Classic songs, beautifully performed and arranged. Tim Tibbitts is a sure sign that the
RW music business is absolutely blind. The power and emotion of Tell Me lies in its
simplicity, allowing the lyrics and vocal to really shine and it was that element that
first caught me - as well as the exceptional guitar work. It was the sheer pop-rock
goodness of You Got Me that made me realise that Tim was much, much more than I had
previously thought and that was high enough. You Got Me is - there is no other word for
it - a magnificent song in every respect; emotionally, technically, musically. A hit
record by anyones standard.
