Tim Freedman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tim Freedman (c. 1964) is the vocalist and pianist of the Australian band The Whitlams. He was born in Sydney and was raised in Manly, in Sydney's Northern Beaches region.
In an interview, which aired on 612 ABC Brisbane on Friday September 29, 2006, Freedman said he became a pianist "by mistake" after quitting law school. He tried to play music for 3 years before finding success. The song "No Aphrodisiac" was the break-through hit (1997). "It captured the imagination", he said.
He cited a highlight of his career so far: receiving the ARIA award for "Best Album" from the man after whom his band The Whitlams were named, former Australian Prime Minister Gough Whitlam. "We've become quite friendly since," he said.
"We've released six albums and had the same line-up for seven years," he said. "We're a tight-knit bunch of fellas". Finally, he declared: "The last decade's been pretty good to me".
