Early life and career
Born in West Hartford, Connecticut, Brennan played drums for numerous punk, hardcore and rock bands in Connecticut before moving to Worcester, Massachusetts in 2000 to attend Assumption College. In 2003, Brennan was asked to join the Dropkick Murphys on tour to sell merchandise. While on tour they had him play accordion on a few songs and he was eventually asked to join the band full-time as the accordion/mandolin/tin whistle/banjo player. Brennan also played in the band Gimme Danger along with Marc Orrell, James Lynch, and Ben Karnavas. When Orrell left the Dropkick Murphys, Brennan became the band's lead guitarist, but also continued to play the accordion. Tim continues to play the tin whistle on all Dropkick Murphys recordings despite having switched to lead guitar. Brennan also played drums in the band Double Nines with Dropkick Murphys' tech Kevin Rheault.
On 10 September 2014 Tim appeared on Ken Reid (comedian)'s TV Guidance Counselor Podcast.
