Tim & Jonnic

With intimate interplay and a rare, detailed approach to rhythmical and agogical nuances in music, the duo Tim & Jonnic approaches the Nordic and Austrian folk music traditions with open eyes, playfulness as well as respect for the music and the people and history behind it. The unique instrument pairing of Jonny’s Styrian Accordion, a traditional diatonic accordion, together with Timmy’s guitar with extended bass register creates an intimate soundscape, while still preserving a width in timbre, dynamics and ambitus usually reserved for larger ensembles. The music consists of both traditional material and compositions by the musicians, taking inspiration from older and newer musical traditions.

Timmy and Jonny met while studying the “Nordic Master’s Program”, a master’s degree in Nordic folk and traditional music. In addition to playing together as a duo for a few smaller projects, they also played together in the ensemble “Timber”. After graduating in June 2023, they decided to continue developing their artistic expression together, with the music, the traditions and the material they met during their studies as a foundation for further musical explorations. In 2026 they release their first full album, “diaTonic” – sharing the fun, and sometimes a bit strange, music they have created over the past few years.
