Welcome to Chad Timblin's little corner of the Internet! 👋

"I exist as I am, that is enough,
If no other in the world be aware I sit content,
And if each and all be aware I sit content."
– From 'Song of Myself' by Walt Whitman

Music

I’ve written (or co-written), recorded, & released 353 original songs to date (these are my favorites so far).

Most of my musical output occurred between July 2013 & June 2018 (330 songs). Since I released the latest Paper Moses album on May 25, 2020, I haven't devoted much time to writing & recording music, but I may get back into it someday.
