Tim Dahl is a professional electric and double bass player, vocalist, keyboardist and composer living in New York City. He is best known as the bass player of the noise-rock band Child Abuse [1][2] and Lydia Lunch Retrovirus.[3] He also writes and performs for the jazz ensemble Pulverize The Sound.[4]

Dahl has toured extensively throughout North and South America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. He has performed with many notable musicians, composers and performers including Yusef Lateef,[5] Archie Shepp, Eugene Chadbourne, Tatsuya Yoshida,[6] Von Freeman,[7] Stanley Jordan, Mary Halvorson,[8] Malcolm Mooney,[9] Marc Ribot, Brian Chase, Hamid Drake, Elliott Sharp, Weasel Walter, Marni Nixon, Peter Evans,[10] Kevin Shea,[11] Mick Barr,[12]Lydia Lunch, Jan Terri, The Bureau of Atomic Tourism,[13] Ava Mendoza [14] etc.

As a bass player he is notable for unique style and technical savviness. Clifford Allen of Tiny Mixtapes' wrote "Tim Dahl [...] approaches his well-worn axe with a battery of pedals and loops, combining determinate speed with murkier sonics to create a landscape not unlike a harsh, speed-freak variant on Hugh Hopper."[15]

Dahl currently lives in Brooklyn and is an active member in the music scene. He is the co-host of the Lydian Spin podcast[16] with Lydia Lunch[17].
