Tim Allan

Yes, Life is good!

  Not only has Tim Allan, the remarkably talented Hall of Fame performer, produced recordings for our listening delight, he has also produced an entire series of matching Arrangement Books, thus allowing banjoists and other musicians to learn the music and play along.

   Each of the recordings marked "with CD" above has an accompanying arrangement book.  Each song arrangement has a single melody line with chord symbols above every melody note.

  Any instrument can benefit from Tim's books, but the first two books shown below, 40 Easy Reading Song Arrangements and 12 More Advanced Song Arrangements, are arranged especially for tenor banjo, using tenor banjo chord diagrams above most melody notes.

  You will definitely want to take advantage of these masterful Arrangement Books!

 Following a recent performance by TIM ALLAN, a Toronto music critic, well known for his less than kind critiques, turned the tables and flatly stated: "I know of no musician today who possesses a broader repertoire or who uses his musical knowledge to better advantage. From country to classics, Tim Allan's work is extraordinary."

 Inducted into the Four-String Banjo Hall of Fame in 2002, Tim was also twice North American Banjo champion. He performed for 14 years on television's popular Tommy Hunter Show, appearing weekly with such headliners as Reba McIntyre, Garth Brooks, and Shania Twain. As well, Tim has entertained several dignitaries including Canada's former prime minister, Pierre Trudeau.

 With a natural proficiency on guitar, banjo, and mandolin, as well as his smooth baritone vocals in a seemingly inexhaustible supply of popular standards, Tim has enjoyed engagements at top hotels and concert venues around the world.

 As a regular contributing editor to the FIGA (Fretted Instrument Guild of America) magazine, Tim is well known in the banjo community and has sold his recordings and instruction books world-wide.

   From concerts to cruises, from clubs to conventions, the music of Tim Allan will appeal to any audience
