Timothy and his band will be performing at the Cherokee Creek Music Festival in Cherokee, Texas, on May 19, 2012. This festival is a non-profit event to raise money for children’s charities and local public service organizations. For more details, visit here.

After a successful run of winter shows, groundbreaking vocalist, songwriter and bass player TIMOTHY B. SCHMIT--well-known for his work as a member of the EAGLES and Poco--is gearing up for a spring U.S. tour with his band starting May 19. For the three-week trek, TIMOTHY and his full band will perform songs from his fifth solo album EXPANDO as well as gems by the EAGLES and Poco. 

TIMOTHY B. SCHMIT explains the impetus for the spring run of dates: “What I like best about doing solo shows is it gives me a chance to interact with the audience in a smaller, more intimate setting.   But, don't get me wrong.  I very much enjoy being a part of the Eagles and all it implies.  For instance, as of this writing, I find myself in a hotel in the exotic city of Dubai where we (the Eagles) will end a short tour that started in South Africa.  After a few more scattered shows in the U.S., I look forward to taking my own band out on the road and having a completely different experience.  I'm a fortune man.  I get the best of both worlds.”

The spring trek will take TIMOTHY and his bandmates to clubs offering an intimate vibe. See below or visit the Tour section for a full list of dates and details.

Hello Everyone,

Sorry to say that my interest in blogging goes in and out (mostly out lately), but it seems I do have some things to talk about, and if you’ve gotten this far on the site you can probably guess what that is:  I made a video (What a concept).  I decided to try and jump start some renewed interest in “Expando”, so I thought I’d have a little fun with the song, “Friday Night” ... And it was fun.  It was shot over a four day period, and includes the talents of directors, Bill and Zak Hudson, players Van Dyke Parks, Hank Linderman, and Herman Matthews, and of course, the beautiful Jean Schmit.  Stay tuned for some “Friday Night” related swag that will be available within the next couple of weeks as well.

On another note,  Eagles are gearing up to go to the Far East soon.  This will be interesting because we’re going to some places we’ve never been before, including Beijing, Singapore, Shanghai, Taipei, and Korea.  And, it goes without saying that we look forward to spending time in Hong Kong and Japan once again.

Here’s hoping I might want to write a little more often.

That’s it for now ...

Best wishes to all,
Timothy

To all well wishers,

I know I’ve sent out my thank you’s already, but that was before I actually read each and every message in that extremely generous e-card (via the L & M Fansite). I now have two days off before we start making up the shows we missed (sorry about that), and I thought I should really tune in to all the great energy that’s been coming my way.  I want to tell you I am truly touched by all who participated. Not only did I hear from long time fans, but I was happy to hear from a few people I haven’t seen, or heard from, in a long time. So, it’s an understatement when I say, thank you all for your concern, your thoughts, and your prayers.

Now, since I already have three post-trauma shows under my belt, let’s all put this behind us and continue on our quest to be good humans... I do know you’re out there...

Onward,
Timothy
