Artist/Band Information

Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds or Dave and Tim is a musical act composed of Dave Matthews, member of Dave Matthews Band, and Tim Reynolds, member of TR3.

History

Matthews and Reynolds met in Charlottesville, Virginia, while Matthews was a bartender at Miller's. Reynolds encouraged Matthews musical growth. Eventually, Matthews wanted to join Reynolds' band TR3, but Reynolds told him to form his own band.

Matthews went on to form Dave Matthews Band. Reynolds has occasionally joined the band in the studio, as on the albums Under the Table and Dreaming, Crash, Before These Crowded Streets and the latest Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King, as well as on tour.

By 1993, as a side project, Matthews and Reynolds played a few acoustic set shows, first on April 22, 1993.

From this point onward, they always played acoustic, and they always played every year together, whether as Dave and Tim, Matthews guesting with TR3, Reynolds guesting with Dave Matthews Band, or Matthews and Reynolds playing in the band Dave Matthews and Friends .
