THEE HANDS OF TYME
_______________________________________________________________________

Who are THEE HANDS OF TYME? No one — not even their record company — is really sure. They seemed to creep forth in 2004, with veteran garage guru Timothy Gassen producing their studio sessions, and even he never really saw the faces of the group in the studio.

But here's what he could piece together: THEE HANDS OF TYME consists of a lanky fellow behind the drums who calls himself simply Beatman (Scot Gassen), the monk-like keyboardist Man Rayzarek (Bill Kurzenberger):, bassist extraordinare Sir Andrew (Andy Smith), guitarist Hey Joe (Joe Guidone, formerly of The Not Quite) and brooding vocalist Lord Tim. (Guitarist Keith Yeary also contributed to the band's first recordings.)

Together they perform a mysterious trance that only the smell of incense can deliver, that only the stoppage of time can create. Whomever they are, from whatever dimension they come, together they form THEE HANDS OF TYME.

Keep your psychedelic dials tuned here, folks. Thee Hands of Tyme keep ticking away...
