TIMBO SIMS. VOCALS. KEYS.
Timbo Sims’ fondness of music began early, listening to his favorites before he could play, and learning to play as soon as life allowed. He began his education as a child through piano lessons, encouraged by his loved ones. By high school, if there was a piano around, Timbo was sharing his music with family and friends every chance he could get. Music filled his every day.
One of Timbo’s early musical adventures began with The Opposition, an experimental improv-jam band formed with John McBroom and Bradley Carr in college. Eventually evolving into Red Weather, by the 90s, Timbo was writing, performing, and recording original psychedelic rock. In the 2020s, Timbo became part of several notable bands and projects, including freestyle rock and roll influenced Kerosene Willy and psychedelic rock flavored Freak Rangers, building a body of work rooted in collaboration and exploration. Each experience added depth, perspective, and a deeper understanding of the craft.
Enjoying all types of music, Timbo has always embraced opportunities to learn new styles, so when he befriended Eli Williams and began sitting in for his bands, he was excited about broadening his horizons. By the early 2020s, Timbo was an official Camelcal in Eli’s Leonard Blush and the Camelcals, exploring the keys through country swing, blues, rock, and bluegrass.
