Enjoy the acoustic melodies of Tim Dwyer from 7-10pm on the artist demo stage on Clayton between 2nd & 3rd Ave.
Tim Dwyer is a longtime fixture in the Denver music scene,
playing in a variety of cover bands over the years as well as solo. His style ranges from Classic Rock favorites to Irish Celtic and Folk. He has two original CD's to his credit and sports a play list of several hundred cover songs. Many say that his voice is a cross between Eric Clapton and James Taylor, and he tends toward melodic songs and strives for rich textural layering of voice and guitar. His shows are a fun mixture of well known songs by favorite artists from Paul Simon to Stone Temple Pilots to The Beatles and Big Head Todd to Van Morrison then he mixes these with some unusual lessor known covers as well as his original music.
Opening Gala Patrons are exclusively invited to attend the Artist Preview Event from 5:00pm—7:00pm. Click here for more information on the
