American country and bluegrass legend, Tim O'Brien has released more than ten studio albums, in addition to charting a duet with Kathy Mattea entitled "The Battle Hymn of Love", a No. 9 hit on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts in 1990. In November 2013 he was inducted into the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame. Recipient of three International Bluegrass Music Awards and two Grammys, Tim continues to write and perform. Tim and his wife Jan Fabricius have performed together nationally and internationally since 2015. The original songs on their new release Paper Flowers offer tangible proof of a deep collaboration, and serve as a narrative of the couple’s life together.
When Cathy Fink and Jon Weisberger approached O’Brien in 2023 to contribute to what became 2024’s Bluegrass Sings Paxton, Tim and Jan wrote the song You Took Me In with the man himself. Encouraged by the results, the three scheduled weekly Zoom co-writing sessions and the songs kept coming. Paper Flowers includes twelve of those songs as well as three more originals.
