Born into a musical family, Tim first studied violin at the age of six, before moving on to guitar at the age of nine. The son of a well-known Baroque scholar, Alfred Mann and Carolyn Mann, a playwright and founder of The Front Porch Children’s Theatre. He is the grandson of harpsichordist Edith Weiss-Mann. Tim took a decidedly different musical route when he discovered rock and roll at the age of seven which began a life long affair with the music of the 60’s and early 70’s, focusing on British Invasion groups (The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Yardbirds), and the West Coast rock scene (The Byrds, The Doors, The Grateful Dead), as well as the troubadours of that age (Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Paul Simon).
