About Tim Edey
Tim has just returned from a major concert tour of Japan with The Chieftains.
Tim Edey is brilliant – in every which way. As a guitarist he has few peers. As a box player he’s a magician. As a character he’s off the scale – Colin Irwin, fRoots
Utterly fantastic. Sheer, wonderful ebullient music – Mike Harding Tim Edey plays a host of different instruments to a standard us mere mortals can only dream of. Listen and weep- Jim Byrne, The Living Tradition

Tim, now a name on the world stage in his own right after seventeen years of hard work, is rated by many to be one of the world’s finest ever Melodoen and Guitar players in the folk & contemporary scene today.
Originally from Broadstairs in Kent and of Irish descent, Tim honed his style learning from his father Richard a fine guitarist and listening to Ed Boyd, Steve Cooney and Django Reinhardt. He has lived in Ireland and now resides in Perthshire, Scotland where he is based with his family and tours all over the world regularly from.
