About
Tim Holmes aka The Buddhist Punk

Tim Holmes has travelled in the guise of The Buddhist Punk for the last 23 years having produced his show: The Sub Verse Meditations of a Buddhist Punk in the late 90s. Since then, he's performed at literary events, music festivals, parties, and underground happenings countrywide; opened for diverse artists from American Polit Punks Anti Flag to The Reggae Philharmonic Orchestra. As a co-instigator of Festival 23 he also finds himself embroiled in the ever expanding neo-Discordian network, though for the last decade his preferred approach has been guerrilla performance; unsolicited renditions to unsuspecting audiences. Outside the party, ideally by the fireside. Alongside being a seasoned spoken word performer, Tim is a Non-Religious Funeral Celebrant and Fellow of the Chartered Quality Institute (CQI) specialising in Organisational Strategy. Based in Sheffield he's organised many local and national events and is frequently invited to host, compere, and perform in wide a range of settings.
