Wisconsin-Based Singer-Songwriter To Release
Third Single in March
Tim O'Grady Jr, an independent, Wisconsin singer-songwriter, will be releasing his third single "All the Things You Do" on all digital platforms on March 15, 2022. The song paints a realistic picture of the day and the life of a husband and wife with a family. It was written by Tim for his wife as a Mother's Day gift a couple years back and it serves as an eternal thank you for all of the things she does for their family on a daily basis. This single is the third and final one that will precede his highly-anticipated debut album The Dollar Man, to be released May 6, 2022.
Tim grew up in rural Southern Wisconsin, which is where most of the inspiration for his music comes from. His songs feature lyrics that paint pictures of everyday life, accompanied by traditional country instruments and sturdy vocals. Marc Gratz, for Midwest Music and Musings podcast, describes Tim as being "as genuine and humble as the songs he writes [and is] the personification of Wisconsin.
His music speaks to the realities of Midwestern life because that's the life he lives, the life he knows. He just happens to be a talented singer-songwriter who can bring those stories to life." That is the motivation for the release of this single and upcoming album, is to share these stories with the world and to preserve the story-telling tradition of traditional country music.

Tim O'Grady Jr was born and raised in a small town in Southern Wisconsin, from where he takes much of the inspiration for his songs. Tim grew up listening to a mixture of music from Blues, Rock and Roll, Americana, Country, and Orchestral music.
He taught himself to sing at a young age and joined the choir in the sixth grade as one of five boys in a choir of thirty. Not long after, he discovered a love for writing and coupled that with buying his first guitar at age 13.
He and two friends started a punk-rock band, called No Tricks, as freshmen in high school, where they performed for school functions and community events. No Tricks only lasted for a couple of years as they started to get jobs and girlfriends. Tim continued to perform and write into his college days, but as life became busier (work, getting married, and having a child) music took a backseat.
It wasn't until discovered the modern Outlaw Country movement in 2016, that music started to make a resurgence in his life. He got the chance to dive back into performing in June 2019 at a tavern in Beloit, WI, where he had been to see several other shows.
Since then, Tim has performed hundreds of shows throughout Wisconsin and Illinois. Those performances include opening for artists such as John Conlee, Josh Morningstar, Tony Logue, and Craig Gerdes. He has also written enough music to begin production on his debut album called The Dollar Man, which is scheduled to be released on May 6, 2022.
