Canadian west coast voice....

Edmonton, Alberta native Feehan perfected his musical skills by writing songs and recording demos while getting his BA in sociology at the University of Alberta. Feehan began in bands early on but it wasn't until 1979 when of his college bands, Footloose, started making waves on the Western dance scene that things began to take off. In 1980 their debut album yielded the hit "Leaving For Maui" which went Top-10 for several weeks in Canada. The band released several more singles over 1980 and 1981 with Feehan leaving shortly thereafter to pursue a solo career.

He continued his tenure as a solo artist with Mustard Records but it wasn't until 1983's duet with Vikki Moss on "Never Say Die" that he managed a #1 hit single on Adult Contemporary radio. He also won the Alberta Recording Association Songwriting competition. The prize was a recording session with producer David Foster.

In 1984, Feehan recorded a single, "Read Between The Lines" that was recorded by David Foster with Steve Lukather on guitar and Fee Waybill doing backing vocals. Feehan then went to Los Angeles hot on the heals of winning the David Foster Songwriting Competition for the song "Where's The Fire?". Los Angeles music types seemed unimpressed, but in 1986 he convinced Scotti Bros. records his value as a songwriter/performer.

Foster produced Feehan's self-titled debut and then decided to use him as the lead singer for a the David Foster World Tour '87 because Peter Cetera was unavailable. The tour included a 5-date tour Japan where Feehan was mobbed by fans because his solo videos were being aired on Japanese TV as part of the promotion of Foster's tour and Scotti Bros. push for Feehan's solo album.

He moved to LA and soon attracted the attention of producers of the Charlie Sheen movie 'The Wraith' and they loved his song "Where's The Fire?" so much it became the title theme of the movie in 1987. Meanwhile Feehan continued his own tour opening shows for Larry Gowan and sang in front of 60,000 people in Vancouver during a celebration for athlete Rick Hanson.

He did the same for the unveiling of a bronze statue in honour of Wayne Gretzky in 1989 and sang an original song, "The Memories Will Last Forever", just for the occasion. By 1990 he had switched to MCA Records and released 'Full Contact' with producer Brian "Too Loud" McLeod (Headpins, Chilliwack).

Tim Feehan has a voice that is amongst the best of the "high pitch" west coast singers, he is in the same category as Joseph Williams, Jason Scheff, Clif Magness, Richard Marx etc. His music is a mix between Chicago, Toto and Richard Marx. He is worthy checkinґ out.
