I've been anxiously awaiting the Columbus return of the Tim Lee 3 since their last visit, just over two years ago. With another stellar album under their belt, 2015's 33 1/3 (released on their "vinyl wedding anniversary" of 33 1/3 years), the trio delivered these new songs with old raucousness. Their unique blend of Americana is steeped in substance, incorporating elements of all that's good in music today. Tim and Susan's vocals are complementary whether alternating or in harmony, and Tim's guitar playing is masterful, which he makes look effortless. Chris Bratta's unassuming approach to banging out the beat effectively holds it all together. These are just good folks making really good music, and having fun at it. This time, they brought along Kevin Abernathy, who gave us a great opening set and also joined Tim Lee 3 on stage to add a little extra zest to the end of their set.
