Tim Grimm is a Folk-Americana singer-songwriter in the tradition of Woody Guthrie and John Prine. His ballad BROKEN TRUTH was the #1 song on International Folk Radio for 2025. He tours yearly in the USA and Europe with his friend and legendary side-man, guitarist Sergio Webb. Tim writes moving observations about community, family, and social issues, framed by his strong sense of place and his love of the rolling hills and rural folk with whom he grew up in Southern Indiana. His albums regularly top the yearly International Folk Radio charts, including with his #1 Album BONES OF TREES in 2025.

For a quarter of a century, Tim Grimm has been writing songs of stunning – and increasingly rare – quality. He has a way of drawing you in like only the very best writers can, finding truth in the smallest details and turning those truths into something luminous. Each new recording by Grimm represents a poetic, intense, passionate immersion in the heart of America. His songs are authentic, straight from the heart, quietly breathtaking. A magnificent songwriter and a storyteller with the ability to connect to audiences in an intimate and natural way, Grimm is a master craftsman sitting down, painting a picture, and giving a master class in how songs can hold both narrative and soul. 

Born and raised in Indiana, he has developed a distinct voice shaped by the Midwest. In these days, Grimm carries the torch of Woody Guthrie's social conscience, the refined and authentic storytelling of Townes and Guy Clark, and the raw intensity of Kris Kristofferson, David Olney, and Eric Taylor. His lyrics, filled with considerable literary weight, often feel like prose written as poetry.

 At his side stands guitarist- and mythic cowboy- Sergio Webb, one of Americana's most distinctive and electrifying sidemen. Webb can play the electric guitar like a demon—or like an angel, coaxing out sombre, cello-like tones that seem to rise from a different world. His style is flamboyant yet deeply intentional; he is a master of his instrument in every sense. Just as effortlessly, he eases from Folk to Rock, Classical to Spanish, Tex-Mex to something entirely his own—and he is a master in each. His versatility is not only impressive, it's essential. Webb adds a vital dramatic tension, a spark, a texture, an atmosphere that lifts every song into a new dimension.

Together, Tim Grimm and Sergio Webb form a duo that is more than the sum of its parts. Their chemistry is intense, intuitive, and endlessly captivating, drawing audiences into a performance that feels alive, restless, and beautifully human. This is not just a collaboration. It's a conversation. A spark. A shared flame. And once you step into the world they create together, it's impossible not to want more.
