After an unexpected health crisis changed Joel Timmons' life, music became his refuge and a catalyst for a new direction in his career. From the sun-soaked shores of Charleston to the vibrant surf culture of Folly Beach, this episode explores Joel's journey of rediscovery and resilience. Join us as we uncover how his latest album, "Psychedelic Surf Country," not only showcases his unique style but also symbolizes who he truly is as an artist.
