Tim Dalling

Tim Dalling is a unique performer, songwriter and accordionist. His work has ranged from musical and theatrical clowning to serious songwriting for theatre, performance and recording. His style ranges from traditional folk to jazz and music hall and has been described as a cross between Ivor Cutler and Randy Newman. His main job, for years, was of the kilted, accordionist fall-guy in The Old Rope and then The New Rope String Band.

But while he’s spent most of his musical life making people laugh, he’s been quietly working away at a body of emotional and inspiring songs of his own and song-settings of many different poets. His solo performances are both moving and funny – he’ll send you away with a smile and some new thoughts to think.
