Strand of Oaks is the musical project helmed by singer-songwriter Timothy Showalter, an Indiana-born musician whose work encompasses a blend of indie rock, folk, and Americana influences. Since its inception, Strand of Oaks has been marked by Showalter's personal songwriting, where introspection meets a rock and roll spirit. Emerging into the music world with the release of "Leave Ruin" in 2009, Strand of Oaks has continued to evolve, with Showalter at the core of its emotive storytelling and dynamic soundscapes.

The project's discography has unfurled a tapestry of vivid narratives and sonic exploration. Albums like "HEAL" (2014) and "Hard Love" (2017) have received critical acclaim, with listeners drawn to Showalter's honesty and the cathartic nature of his music. Strand of Oaks' most recent work includes the album "In Heaven" (2021) and a series of accompanying acoustic tracks, showcasing Showalter's ability to strip back his music to its rawest form while maintaining its emotional potency. "Eraserland," released in 2019, featured contributions from members of My Morning Jacket, further highlighting Showalter's collaborative spirit and his project's ever-expanding musical horizons. Whether backed by a full band or performing solo acoustic versions of his tracks, Strand of Oaks continues to forge a deep connection with audiences through poignant lyrics and powerful melodies.
