Biography

Timothy James Moxey (born 27th May, 1985 in Sydney) is an Australian singer-songwriter.

Tim grew up singing in church, and was exposed to music from a young age. Once his high school music teachers realised he could sing, Tim quickly moved from backstage crew to lead male in his school musicals, where he performed the role of Jean Val Jean in Les Miserables.

After completing high school, Tim went on to study music at Wesley Institute, where he became the contemporary male soloist with the Wesley Institute Choir. In 2008 Tim completed his Bachelor of Music with Central Queensland University, graduating with Distinction. He has studied with some of Australia’s finest vocal teachers, including Leigh McRae, Kristin Berardi, Justine Bradley, Mark Williams and Patricia Oertel.

In 2010 Tim was fortunate enough to receive an ArtStart grant from the Australia Council for the Arts to further his professional development, and in 2012 he released his debut album, Stargazing, with Australian piano legend Mark Isaacs.
