Tim and the Turmoil was formed in 2024 by Austin band veterans now living in Bastrop. Although the members – drummer Brian Ellison (Steers, The Great Curve), bassist Jason Krohmer (Red McFunk, Wyldwood Road Band), lead guitarist Jeff Garrard (Lucky Velour, Mudbone Hustler), and singer/guitarist Tim Wilkins (The Leisure Class, Louder Shrine) – have played in many genres, Tim and the Turmoil is inspired by the straight-ahead rock and roll of the 1980s and 1990s – crunchy guitars, propulsive bass, potent drums. Their debut album, Makeshift Memorials, was produced and recorded by Matt Parmenter at Austin's Ice Cream Factory Studio and is available on all streaming platforms.
