college years leading The Versatiles, a band that had a

specialized in acoustic rhythms and four-part
harmonies. After eight years, High Point disbanded and
Tim was ready for some upbeat music that would draw a
dancing crowd. At this time, swing music was gaining
in popularity across the country. always interested in
exploring a new musical experience, Tim found what he
was looking for. |
