The Fourth Son is a Philadelphia based solo project created by Tim Connor. Tim grew up in Tabernacle, New Jersey, a small town tucked within the state's densely forested coastal plain known as the Pine Barrens. He initially set out as a drummer playing for local cover bands which frequented local bars and colleges. While attending college Tim began to experiment with guitar, leading him to try his hand at song-writing. He began co-writing and producing with the New Jersey based band Dog Show Blues. During this time he also worked on what would later become his debut album.
