"Collins' vibraphone style, which is pleasant, mature, and full bodied... is nothing less than exemplary"

- DOWNBEAT (MARCH 08)

"This is one of the best vibraphonists that I've heard in years. Tim's musical creativity really shines through, not to mention Tim and the group having brought a refreshing new sound to the table for us to partake of." - Leon Reyes KVMR 89.5 FM Nevada City/Sacramento Ca

"What a great sound you have" - Michael Criddle, Triple-H FM Australia
