Timothy Thomas Matley (16 February 1982 – 11 April 2018) was from Cork, Ireland.

Timmy got into performing arts at the age of 14, and at 16 years old he came to London to audition for a performing arts school. Timmy left Ireland when he was 17, as he didn't enjoy college.

He went travelling and then came back and decided to get involved with songwriting and singing. He was the lead singer of the band the Overtones, and sometimes joined the middle harmonies of the band. He loved meerkats and knitted in his spare time. 

The Overtones are a five-piece vocal harmony group. They were discovered by a Warner Bros. Records' talent scout while working as decorators in a shop near Oxford Street, singing during their tea break. Their debut album Good Ol' Fashioned Love entered the UK Albums Chartat #16 in November 2010. However, after the re-release of the album in March 2011, it propelled to #4. They have sold in excess of 500,000 copies of their first album.
