Wanderings
Langzaam maar zeker heeft het wandelen zijn weg gevonden in Tims muziek. Waar rusteloosheid ooit de toon zette, is nu ruimte voor bezinning. En waar boosheid was, heerst nu liefde. In zijn voorstelling Wanderings deelt Tim de verhalen van zijn wandeltochten en speelt hij de liedjes die een essentiële rol speelden tijdens deze lange tochten.
Gelukkig is er veel dat hetzelfde is gebleven: Tim, alleen op het podium, omringd door instrumenten, met prachtige covers en vele nieuwe nummers. Wat er wel veranderd is? Tim zelf. Wanderings gaat over de kracht van bezinning tijdens het wandelen en de schoonheid die daaruit voortkomt.

Tim Knol walks. Not just a casual stroll with the dog, but real journeys: through the vast nature of Texel, across rugged Norway with his young daughter on his back, around the IJsselmeer, and from the three-country point all the way to Groningen. Step by step, while exploring the world around him, Tim reflects on his former life as the cheerful yet dangerously overweight singer-songwriter.
Slowly but surely, walking has found its way into Tim’s music. Where once there was restlessness, there is now room for reflection. And where there used to be anger, there is now love. In his theatre show Wanderings, Tim shares the stories of his journeys and performs the songs that became essential companions along the way.
Thankfully, some things have stayed the same: Tim, alone on stage, surrounded by instruments, performing beautiful covers and many new original songs. What has changed? Tim himself. Wanderings is about the quiet power of walking – and the beauty that can emerge when we finally allow ourselves to slow down.
