Jeff started his career in the studio as an independent music producer and engineer, and from 2007 to 2016, was the Front of House engineer for Chris Tomlin. Written during a church retreat, Timmons next offered up the anthemic single, “I Belong,” which featured an appearance from CCM legend, Amy Grant. That same year, he offered his first holiday release with the five-song Mighty Christmas EP. Timmons’ next project was the 2017 children’s album, Who I Am, which he co-produced with Christian Hale and released independently.
He followed up in 2015 with Awake Our Souls and toured in support of the release with MercyMe and Phil Wickham. Cast My Cares, Timmons’ first album of worship music, was produced by Paul Mabury, and was released in the summer of 2013 and reached number 13 on Billboard’s Christian chart. Declaring that “Following Jesus versus being a believer in Him is revolutionary,” Timmons put a new emphasis on music and songwriting, and in 2013, he landed a record deal with the Christian music label Reunion Records. After he’d more than doubled his initial survival expectancy, Timmons felt a new calling to use his music as a tool to bring people to a greater understanding of what it truly means to follow Jesus.
Originally told he had only five years to live, Timmons devoted himself to his wife, his growing family, and his work as a worship leader. However, in 2001, Timmons began re-examining his life when he was diagnosed with inoperable cancer.

Timmons developed a knack for songwriting, and in his early twenties, he began turning professional, eventually co-writing with the likes of Mike Doheney of the group Tenth Avenue North, Michael Farren of Pocket Full of Rocks, Dove Award-nominated singer/songwriter Jason Walker, and LaRue frontman Phillip LaRue, while also serving as a worship leader at Mariners Church in Irvine. Timmons was born in Irvine, California on February 9, 1976, and he developed an interest in music as a child, taking up the drums when he was seven years old, learning to play guitar and write songs when he was 11, and teaching himself to play piano. Coming back from a dramatic cancer diagnosis, Timmons forged a career as an inspirational recording artist with albums like 2013’s Cast My Cares and 2015’s Awake Our Souls, later venturing into children’s music with 2017’s Who I Am. Worship Leader, singer and songwriter Tim Timmons is a man of faith whose principles were tested by hard luck and mortal challenges before he produced his first album of praise & worship music. Andrew, Franni and Martin were also aspiring musicians, passionate about sharing their gifts through songs and stories. “I think many producers are, in some way, closet artists,” Ed attests. They never could have imagined how, years later, God would bring their artist dreams full circle in the form of a family band. Though no longer pursuing careers as artists, both brothers continued to lead worship and remained involved in playing music at Young Life camps. After stepping off of the road to spend more time with his growing family, Scott began working with Ed writing and producing, and the brothers have written many songs together including “Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies)”. Instead, behind the scenes, Ed went on to become an award-winning songwriter and producer, steering records for artists like Chris Tomlin, Crowder and Bethel Music and co-writing timeless songs like “How Great Is Our God,”“Amen (Because He Lives)” and “All My Hope,” among other hits. However, when they each became fathers, the dream of being an artist was relegated to put on the back burner. Despite there being an eleven year age gap between them, as both Ed and Scott entered their teens and early 20s, they embarked on similar individual journeys as touring artists and had the opportunity to be deeply involved in the ministry of Young Life. Their dad played guitar, and their mom played piano, resulting in a home filled with music. The multi-generational family band-consisting of brothers Ed Cash and Scott Cash, Ed’s daughter Franni, his son Martin and dear friend Andrew Bergthold-grew roots when the Cash brothers were just kids.
