As the temperatures continue to drop, the layers continue to grow. I'm obsessed with this wool baseball cap from Ted baker not only because of the two-tone, but the wool is great for these freezing days. When it's all said and done, feeling a little city slickers today.

Tim Kerr

Tim Kerr was born and raised on the Texas coast on the Gulf of Mexico, just south of Galveston. There he began to surf and play guitar . He had a wonderful childhood, but hated high school. He will tell you that surfing, music and his friend and later-to-be-wife, Beth saved him during those high school years.

Some of his continuing musical influences were formed early and include British invasion bands, soul music, British folk and acoustic music (Bert Jansch, John Martyn, etc.)

Tim moved to Austin in 1974 to attend The University of Texas at Austin and there he earned a degree in painting and photography. While in the art department, he studied under famed photographer Garry Winogrand and was awarded a Ford Foundation grant for his work.

Also during this time, Tim was selected to compete two years in a row in a song writing contests held at the then new (now 32 years old) Kerrville Folk Festival. Tim couldn’t participate in the second festival he was invited to because he had broken his arm while skating in an empty swimming pool just before the contest date.
