Bio

Singer, Songwriter, Producer, Multi-Instrumentalist, these are just a few words that can be used to describe Timothy J. Wilson. This son of a preacher was raised twenty minutes from New York City in White Plains, N.Y. Being so close to the big apple, he was afforded the opportunity of performing in many venues all around the city. (Café Wah, the Village Underground, The Soul Café, Wilson’s, The Sugar Bar) In late March of 2011, Timothy relocated from NY State to Atlanta, Ga. to promote his “Kiss Me” LP, which was released on his very own Tim’elody Records label. Not even in Atlanta for five months, Timothy had already sold 1,000 copies of the Album hand to hand by the end of July. In Atlanta, Timothy has performed at the Apache Café, Urban Grind, Kat’s Café, Centennial Olympic Park, Georgia State University, Kennesaw State University, The Sweet Auburn Spring Fest, The Dogwood Festival, and has also put in time “Street Performing” at Lil’ Five Points, and Atlantic Station. In February of 2012, Timothy was chosen by casting director Alpha Tyler as a featured singer, on a Season 2 episode of the BET show, “Let’s Stay Together”. In March of that same year, Timothy launched his very own show, “Timothy J. Wilson Live!” at Food for life supreme where his fans/supporters could come and see him perform an hour long show for free. In April of 2012, Timothy was chosen by music industry veteran Shanti Das (Laface, Arista, Universal Motown) to perform as the “Artist of the month” at her popular event, “ATL Live on the Park”, which always brings out a host of music industry movers and shakers, professional athletes and celebrities. About that performance, Rollingout.com wrote: “ATL Live on the Park Artist of the month, Timothy J.

In the fall of 2013, Timothy released the “Born to Love” EP, and not long after, the “Born to Love” music video. In November of 2014, Timothy landed his first major film, playing the role of Verdine White, the legendary bassist of the band, Earth, Wind, & Fire in the Warner Brothers film, “The Nice Guys”, starring Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling. The movie was released on May 20, 2016. In May 2015, Timothy released his third EP “LOVESONGWRITER”, which landed him a feature post on the well-known Afropunk blog. In November of that same year he released his fourth EP, “BEATS, BASS, PARTY” which landed him a feature on Singersroom.com. A few months later in May of 2016 he released “The Unplugged Sessions” LP. In June of 2018, Timothy released a sexy new single entitled, “How ‘Bout We Make Love”.

It has aired on Music video television networks in Chicago, Memphis, Nashville, NYC, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, and California.
