Hello to all my loyal fans and subscribers!
I just uploaded a bunch of new songs from several of my past albums. The genres are varied from traditional Rock, to Easy Listening all the way to Bluegrass!
I hope you all enjoy the new tracks.
I am grateful to all of you for pushing my play way past 105,000 recently. I only wish some record producer or Label would finally take notice of my talents as all of these tracks were recorded at my in-home 32 track studio; where I play and record all the instruments you hear on all the tracks with old school direct recording methods (no software or mistake dubbing tricks). I then mix and master them myself.
My best work can be heard on the title track, and in all the rest of the tracks from my "SMILE FOR ME" Album; but I'm still pretty proud of all my earlier works as well.
Thank you all for your continued support!!!
Best Regards,
Tim Mackey

Just a short note to make sure you check out the two NEW songs ("Walkin' In The Rain" and "Gettin' Into The Groove") I have placed on N1M in addition to my very popular "Smile for ME" track that many of you like so well. Walkin' in the Rain is my best imitation of Earl Klugh while Gettin' Into The Groove has a definite George Benson feel. Please check them out and tell all your friends! THANK YOU!

About Tim Mackey
First let me explain a little about my musical background. I have played the guitar since I was 9 years old. At age 14 I began appearing regularly on local live Radio and TV shows on the affiliates of CBS (KOIN) and ABC (KATU) as a guest soloist all during high school.
During college I appeared locally on stage as the lead guitarist in traveling shows with Glen Campbell, Buck Owens, Sherri Lewis, Burl Ives, and other shows including the Ice Capades orchestra, Rose Festival Concert orchestra and others. I also was hired at times as a studio musician to record music for TV and radio commercials.
The summer I graduated from PSU I appeared with Della Reese for two weeks at the grand opening of the GreenWood Inn. I also had a full load of guitar and banjo students and I worked full time at Portland Music Company for several years.
In the late 70’s I used my education and transitioned into the “hi-tech” marketing jobs, climbing the corporate ladder at companies like Tektronix, Hewlett-Packard and others -- leaving my music behind.
After 18 years of that I went into business for myself, running an ad agency for 9 years and then getting my real estate license in 1999.
The nice thing about my work in real estate is the ability to make my own decisions as to how to spend my time. I have been fortunate enough to be able to make a good living in real estate with time left over to again pursue my love for music.
For the last 8 years I have been studying the violin with Hugh Ewart, the retired CONCERTMASTER of the Oregon Symphony.
My in home recording studio includes a 32 track digital recording platform, a digital drum machine, a full set of Hart Dynamics electronic drums and a guitar synthesizer that allows me to create almost any instrument or voice sound with a special guitar plugged into it that drives the synthesizer.
I play, record and teach ALL styles of guitar (acoustic, electric and classical), mandolin, violin, bass and 5-string banjo.
My dream is to get some record producer somehwere to "discover" me and help me launch a recording career like George Benson, Earl Klugh and Larry Carlton have enjoyed..... as there are not that many good instrumental guitarists producing albums these days with "listenable music" for "adults".
