Biography
Tim Freedman is the lead singer of award winning Australian band The Whitlams, whose appeal reaches audiences of all ages and tastes. His lyrics have been described as having a ‘charming cynicism’, enhanced by an instinct for a poignant melody and a highly individual musical style. The Whitlams won Best Group at the 1998 ARIA Awards, as well as Song of the Year and Best Independent Release for their 3rd album ‘Eternal Nightcap’. Tim’s occasional solo performances are a treat for any music lover, as his intimate banter and stripped-back piano stylings have captivated many an audience. The Whitlams’ recorded output spans 5 albums over their decade-long existence, with the last album Torch the Moon making its debut at number one on the ARIA national charts, and became the third consecutive Whitlams album that to go platinum. Recording for a 6th studio album, produced by J. Walker of Machine Translations, is nearly complete, and it will be released on Black Yak Records through Warner Music.
