Tim Lothar
Ex-drummer turned Danish acoustic bluesman - Frederikshavn songster, German Blues Award honoree.
Musical Influence
Lothar's significance lies in proving a late-blooming, self-taught path can still reach the top of European blues — from a quarter-century as a drummer to a Danish Music Award, German Blues Award honour, and a reputation, per Blues Finland, as the most influential blues artist in the Nordic countries, built entirely on solo acoustic storytelling rather than a backing band (Kilde: timlothar.com).
