His live shows exude a vaudevillian spirit pairing comedic sketches with heartfelt musical performances, taking the ticket holder on a tour de force of the human spirit that’s invigorating and life-affirming. Somehow, he integrates into his work comedy, tragedy, and inspirations as vast as Monty Python, early Saturday Night Live, George Winston, Bach, Schubert, Chopin, Arlo Guthrie, Regina Spektor, Pat Metheny, and Victor Borge. In 2010, he released the imaginative and ethereal 18-track album Euphoric Owls, which features himself and the Brown Sisters: Lauren, Lilly, and Jenna, three of his tremendously talented students. And Tim has appeared in over 60 musical theater, opera, and theater productions as a singer, actor, pianist, or musical director. In November, 2017, they wrote, recorded, and released a new song, called Endless Rain. Timothy previously was the co-writer, singer, and keyboardist for the progressive rock band Myriad Creatures who remain sporadically active to this day with occasional reunions. He wrote a piece for virtuoso accordion player for Ann Randolph’s one-woman show, Squeeze Box, which had sold-out runs in New York, Boston, Toronto, Los Angeles, and San Francisco.

Currently, the Bloomington, Indiana-based multitasking powerhouse is readying a pair of distinct albums and a movie musical. There is a popular self-actualization quote that goes “You can always do more than you think you can.” Composer, pianist, singer, actor, writer, piano and voice teacher Timothy Reed embodies this spirit with his adventurous creativity.
