2025 Update: Please head over to my SoundCloud page — Timothy Michael Music — for a full list of songs available for “cuts”. I pitch primarily country songs to publishers and songpluggers in Nashville, but feel free to contact me if you hear something you’d like to pursue. There were just getting way too many to add on here and felt it would be easier just to keep all that in one place on my SoundCloud page. https://soundcloud.com/user-978320288

My SoundCloud page is Timothy Michael Music and there are just a ton of songs on there to listen to. I recently started using A I to add music to all the songs in my lyric catalog. That way you can actually here what I’m thinking “music-wise” instead of just reading the lyrics on a page. They are now all brought to life.
“Music is what emotion sounds like.” It’s easy to be disconnected and bury emotion somewhere deep inside. Beautiful things happen when you dig into those hard things and share yourself with the world. My song lyrics catalog is contained under the “blog” header of this website.

Tim Schlesener is a full-time realtor with Leslie Cain Realty in East Texas and is currently looking to collaborate with other singer/songwriters in the area to produce Country and Christian music.
Tim writes from the heart sharing life experiences and he and his wife Whitney share six kids and six grandkids. After a career spanning a quarter century in the railroad industry in Kansas Tim and Whitney moved near the “music friendly city” of Lindale, Texas. Tim began writing song lyrics as a creative outlet.. It’s inspiring to have the opportunity to enjoy live music regularly at local music venues “Texas Music City Grill and Smokehouse” and “Brisket Love Barbecue and Icehouse.” It’s incredible to have these venues in the growing community of Lindale, just northwest of Tyler.
