This is what Blues Matters Magazine wrote of his first cd "Cut To The Bone":
"Tim Lothar is an artist from whom we can expect a lot."
Evocative guitar and haunting vocals grace this impressive collection of Delta Blues.
Petersen understands that the first Delta blues artists were creators. One cannot emulate them through imitation, but only through innovation. By taking the Blues forward he honours its past. Tim Lothar Petersen is an artist from whom we can expect a lot. M.D. Spenser, Blues Matters!
Mississippi delta blues at its finest.
Names like Robert Johnson, Charley Patton, Mississippi Fred McDowell sets the inspiration for Tim Lothar.
Tim Lothar is one of the few roots musicians who, as well as being a great singer and guitarist, also is a very good songwriter, breeding new life into the delta blues scene.
This is where the past meets the present, a tasteful mixture of old songs and new ones.
