Biography
Brooklyn singer-songwriter Tim Reale delivers a gritty alternative edge rooted in classic storytelling with his upcoming LP, Things Work Out (August 2026). Co-produced with Eli Crews, the record channels the evocative songwriting of Josh Ritter and the driving energy of Tom Petty. The album boasts a powerhouse studio lineup, featuring bassist Catherine Popper (Jack White, Norah Jones), keyboardist Kyle Forester, and drummer Rob Draghi.
Anchored by the compelling single "High Road" and the driving, up-tempo follow-up "Days Go By"—which features searing lead guitar by Chris Maxwell—Reale is actively booking dates across the New York Tri-State area. Available as a dynamic solo acoustic act or backed by a full band, Reale brings a polished, high-energy performance to listening rooms and rock venues alike.
