"Tim makes no qualms about his potential for romanticism, the prevailing theme of his music. Musical four thumbs up! The presentation sears to the artery. Tim Hanauer is a wonder version of mellow." - KKPL
“In his new release, Boomerang, Hanauer gives listeners his take on life, love and letting go in the uncertain, and sometimes harsh world in which we live. His refreshing observations reveal Hanauer’s mature, experienced outlook on the human situation. Hanauer’s touching intimacy and fiercely private lyrics are sure to strike a chord with anyone (and that is most likely everyone) who has been made a fool of by love.” - Scene Magazine, Fort Collins, CO
Tim Hanauer’s Boomerang Makes up for lost time
The great traditional singer/songwriter style lives on in local music. Tim Hanauer combines the surfer-boy lullabies of Jack Johnson with a John Mayer folk-tinged feel. Hanauer didn’t start his
journey into the musical realm until he was 17, but he’s making up for a
late start.
“Yellow Raincoat” has already been featured on CBS’s “The Ghost Whisperer” and Denver’s own
KQMT, The Mountain, has placed Hanauer’s cover of “8 Days A Week” as the first track on
their Mountain Homegrown Volume IV release. - Marquee Magazine

"We get TONS of music each week. Putting in an album not presented to me by a major label and finding a "diamond in the rough" is what makes my job fun.

Bio
Colorado singer-songwriter Tim Hanauer has earned notoriety through an impressive number of songs in television shows and commercials. With eight songs on 90210 and nearly a dozen other spots last season alone, Hanauer’s recent resume reads like a page from the TV Guide. Chances are you’ve heard him, even if you didn’t know it.
After the 2009 release of the film “I Hate Valentine’s Day,” in which Hanauer’s song, “Dream a better way” is featured in the final scene, his television and Internet presence skyrocketed. The song has since found its way into ads for GMC, Adrianna Papell clothing, Piedmont Health Care, and a slew of television shows.
Whole Foods Market’s Whole Planet Foundation has recently utilized Hanauer’s song “Hooray for Love” as part of their “Download For A Difference” campaign. The digital compilation puts Hanauer side by side with Alabama Shakes, Ingrid Michaelson, The Civil Wars, Andrew Bird and Bonnie Raitt. The campaign funds micro loans to entrepreneurs and is promoted online to Whole Foods’ 1,000,000+ customer base.
He's performed for the People's Fair, Taste of Fort Collins, FOCOMX, Bohemian Nights at NewWestFest, Steamboat Wine Festival, and many venues across the state. When he's not playing, you'll find him in his garden.
