Trop rock & coastal country music
The Reverend TJ
The Tikibar Troubadour
Welcome to the vibrant world of Reverend TJ, a captivating singer-songwriter whose sound blends trop rock and coastal country, inspired by legends like Jimmy Buffett, Kenny Chesney, and Zac Brown. A third-generation entertainer, TJ carries on a family legacy that began with his mother, aunt, and grandparents touring the Midwest as part of a xylophone band post World War II which was highlighted by a performance on the legendary Grand Ole Opry. His love affair with the island vibes of Key West ignited during a cruise ship visit, and he has returned multiple times a year, enchanted by the island’s inclusiveness and spirit. Discovering Jimmy Buffett’s storytelling later in life deeply resonated with him, alongside influences from John Denver, Gordon Lightfoot, and even the likes of Kiss and Prince. TJ’s live performances are a delightful blend of his original songs and the classics that shaped his musical journey, showcased in his dynamic show, “The Reverend TJ’s Key West Experience.” For booking inquiries, reach out to TJ at tj.hollingsworth.46075@gmail.com, and don’t forget to check out his social media on YouTube and Instagram for more of his musical adventures!
