Tim Montana Releases New EP Cars On Blocks

By Troy Wilson Country Rocker Tim Montana has just released his new EP Cars On Blocks. Cars On Blocks is Montana’s label debut for Music Knox Records / BBR Music Group. Already news of the release is being spread across social media platforms with luminaries such as Hollywood bad boy Charlie Sheen, Josh Brolin (yes, Thanos himself), Thomas Jane (The Punisher) and Rob O’Neill (the NAVY Seal who killed Osama bin Laden) releasing videos about the new album on their social media outlets.

To celebrate the release of the album, perform the song “Do It Fast.” This performance was the song and the album’s TV debut. “Do It Fast” was written in tribute to Tim’s friend and X Games Champion, Travis Pastrana along with motorcycle madman, Evel Knievel. Travis , who hails from Butte, Montana tells us that the new four-song EP is also a tribute to Butte and his trailer park roots. He tells us that the title song off the EP, “Cars On Blocks” and “River Kids” reflect the lifestyle of his “Blue Collar Butte Live”. He further illustrates that the song “Stronger Than You” describes what he has gained out of that upbringing. Michael Knox produced the album.

“I love that those ol’ boys are just as excited about the new music as I am—it’s nice to have people in your corner,” said Tim Montana “There’s something about this project that just feels really good too. Not only because the music feels so ‘me’ but teaming up with Knox and having the label’s support, everything just feels Tim Montana appeared on Fox & Friends to

elevated from what we’ve done before.”

Tim also stayed pretty busy during the pandemic, donning his producer’s hat to make a video for his and Mat Best’s song, “Quarantine.” Joining in on the action for the video were his friends and guest stars, Charlie Sheen, Lee Brice, Chris Kirkpatrick, Michael Ray, Chase Rice, and Travis Pastrana, to name a few. The song is a bit humorous, but it is still Country with a Rock edge to it. 52 Rock and Blues International • November 202052 Rock and Blues International • December 2020 Montana recently shared a post on his Instagram account about the EP celebrating his relationship with Michael Knox. Tim has a heart of gold and a personality to match as evidenced by the plethora of luminaries and Hollywood stars that have joined in to help him celebrate the announcement of the new EP. Who else could command such high respect from sports athletes, actors, war heroes, and fellow musicians.

In addition to being a musician, Tim is also the star of his own TV show, Tim Montana’s Wild Side” which can be seen on the Velocity Outdoor Channel. He is also a shrewd businessman and is involved with products such as Polaris, Black Rifle Coffee, Fender, Gerber, Giant Bicycles, Indian Motorcycles, Kicker Performance Audio, Orange Amplifiers, Snap On, Traeger Grills, Whisker Bomb Pepper Sauce (with his fellow Whisker Brother, Billy Gibbons) and more.

This isn’t Tim’s first rodeo. His music has been utilized in NHL Games, NASCAR telecasts, action movies, and was even selected as the theme song for World Series Championship runs. Some of you may have even been privileged to see him on stage with Foo Fighter’s Dave Grohl as well as the legendary Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, not to mention opening up for Kid Rock.
