Tim Falvey of Big Iron Echoes

Fusing Celtic-tinged vocals, poetic lyricism, and street performance grit, Tim Falvey returns to the Bitter End to pour out a tastefully emotive flight of original Americana music. The harmonica-wielding troubadour distills his semi-autobiographical catalog into a coffeehouse tapestry woven with tales of tryst and travel and torment -- with a few laughs along the way. Performing solo on January 9, the ringleader for the conceptual, NYC-based band "Big Iron Echoes" has set his sights on activating an intellectual, palatable, and polished folk-rock movement for a parched and eager audience.
