NASHVILLE, TENN. - Tim Timmons released his new album HERE with Integrity Music this week. This special eight-song release is an invitation to encourage the listener to pray and keep a thankful heart throughout the day.
"I think if I was going to put a practice or theme to the songs on this record, it would be 'What am I giving my attention to? What do we give our worship to all week long?' It's about aligning and re-aligning our hearts to Jesus," shares Tim Timmons about this project.
Timmons kicked off this year releasing the song, "This Is The Day," which is featured on his new album HERE and is his radio single which is currently moving up on the National Christian Audience chart. This song reminds the listener to practice thankfulness all day long. And as one who is all too familiar with trials and pain, he takes this song to heart personally.
"I'm now 21 years into a 5-year death sentence with an incurable cancer diagnosis [...], one of my primary reminders is to practice thankfulness for another day that I get to wake up," explains Timmons. "Focusing on Jesus' nearness in and through our struggles is where we realign ourselves toward joy. I see the gift of cancer is about perspective. It's really the open door to speak into people's stories."
Timmons has been releasing music with Integrity Music since 2020. He debuted his first project in 2013 with Cast My Cares followed by 2015's Awake Our Souls. He has been writing songs for himself and for other artists, including a GRAMMY® nomination for co-writing MercyMe's "Even If," which stayed at No. 1 on the National Christian Audience charts for 19 weeks.
"For years I've heard people all over town talk about Tim Timmons in the most unique way," shares Andrew Osenga, Director of A&R, Integrity Music. "It has been such a joy to get to know this guy and find that it's all true, and to partner together to create an album of songs that invites the listener into this same relationship that so many people in Nashville were talking about. This is an album that befriends you and invites you in: to come alive to the heart knowledge that you are seen, valued and loved, and to be present HERE, safe in the love of Jesus."
Later this month, Timmons will be launching his podcast "10,000 MINUTES: The Experiment," hosted by Timmons with co-hosts Chris Cleveland (Stars Go Dim) and Emmoe Doniz along with some amazing special guests. The Experiment is a weekly deep dive into the adventures and struggles of living out our daily lives WITH Jesus, not for Him.
All of his songs - Timmons calls them prayers - have stemmed from personal experience after spending the previous 15 years leading worship in Orange County, California. He is now based in Nashville, with the past nine years touring full-time around the world.
