TIM KERR
Based in Austin Texas, Tim Kerr became involved musically and artistically with the early stages of the DIY (Do It Yourself) punk/hardcore/self-expression movement in the 1970’s. The idea that anyone could, and should participate in self-expression is key to Tim’s approach to music and visual art.
