the day I first listened to Tim Fite

I was poking around ANTI-Records MySpace page, assuming since they're the label of choice for one Mr. Tom Waits, they might have another artist or two I would enjoy. As usual, I was right. Tim Fite. And he was easy to find. The headshot drew me right in. I thought, this is a guy who just HAS to make good music.

He makes some damn good music.

I'm partial to:
Away From The Snakes (mp3)
You've Been Warned (mp3)
and
No Good Here (mp3)

Basically, I'm partial to his rock/bluesy folk stuff, but he also rocks the hip-hop. For a glimpse into his cross-genre hip-hop sound, Camoflage is a good place to start.

Tim Fite has a YouTube channel and a little video show called Gunshow, which is worth checking out also.

Some of my favorites include:

Episode 1

and Episode 8

The coolest thing about Tim Fite? He gives away almost all of his music! Go to www.timfite.com and you can download all of the tracks from his previous two albums and a few from his new one, Gone Ain't Gone, which you can purchase in its entirety here or here or via ITunes
