Tim Moore, born on December 31, 1949, in New York, U.S., is an American pop singer and songwriter renowned for his work in the 1970s. Growing up in Philadelphia, Moore was a self-taught musician who began his career playing in local coffee houses and later joined bands like DC & the Senators and Woody's Truck Stop. He co-founded The Muffins, which had minor success with the single "Subway Traveler."

Moore's talents caught the attention of Frank Zappa, although a collaboration did not materialize. He worked as a staff writer and session musician in Philadelphia, collaborating with notable figures like Daryl Hall. Moore and Hall co-founded the band Gulliver, releasing an album on Elektra Records.

Seeking a more personal musical approach, Moore moved to Woodstock, New York, where he signed with Dunhill Records and released his first single, "A Fool Like You," featuring Donald Fagen. His self-titled debut album, produced by Nick Jameson, included the single "Second Avenue," which charted in the US, Canada, and the UK. However, a competing version by Art Garfunkel overshadowed its success.

In 1975, Moore released "Behind the Eyes," featuring "Rock and Roll Love Letter," later popularized by the Bay City Rollers. Throughout his career, Moore's work was admired by peers such as Keith Richards and James Taylor. Despite not achieving widespread fame, Moore's music left a lasting impact, and he continued to be active in the music industry until 2019.
