Excitement Builds in Atlanta as Tim Heidecker Prepares for a Unique Performance

Atlanta is buzzing with excitement as beloved comedian and musician Tim Heidecker gets ready to showcase his brand-new album, Slipping Away, on February 17 at Terminal West. Known for his hilarious antics on shows like Tim and Eric: Awesome Show, Great Job! and for his memorable roles in films like Bridesmaids and Us, Tim is set to deliver an evening unlike any other.

What to Expect: A New Musical Journey

Fans attending the concert will be treated to a sneak peek of Heidecker’s upcoming album, which is set for release on October 18. This time around, the album marks a significant shift from his previous works, focusing more on serious and introspective themes rather than just the all-too-familiar comedic elements. Slipping Away feels like a time capsule from the 1970s, masterfully reflecting contemporary socio-cultural issues with a unique blend of sadness and lightness.

Among the tracks to look out for during the performance are songs like “Hey, Would You Call My Mom For Me?,” which addresses the ongoing crisis of the unhoused, and “Something Somewhere” alongside “Bells Are Ringing,” both diving into themes of death and the passage of time. Tim views the subject of death as an important topic, believing that discussing it through music can help diminish the fears and anxieties that often accompany it.

A Comedic Twist

While the night is primarily focused on his new material, die-hard fans can also expect some lighthearted stand-up comedy sprinkled throughout the show. This dual experience promises to keep the audience engaged while navigating the more serious themes presented in his music.
