Rising Sun

Timbo is a sleeve-rolling, guitar-playing, fast-thinking, handy dandy carpenter. We dig his cow punk music. We like his easy style. He is stylish without needing to try. It helps he is often found decked out in Rising Sun clothing for its built-to-last construction. This is Timbo. Hear him roar. And croon. Those sighing sounds are from the swooning ladies.

As his bio states, Timbo was raised in the backwoods of Hammond, Louisiana. He currently resides in Los Angeles where he and his band, Speedbuggy, produce high energy country/roots/Americana music fused with punk rock and rockabilly influences. Speedbuggy is described as a working man’s band and Timbo is definitely hard-working.

He has been a carpenter for 20+ years, specializing in remodeling homes and constructing new houses. For his talent and skills he has worked on television as carpenter to the TV Guide Network’s “Ready, Set, Change,” main construction coordinator on TLC’s “Trading Spaces” and HGTV’s “DesignStar.” His current gig is for the new show, “The Antonio Treatment,” where he is featured as lead project manager.

Timbo is shown here on a job site garbed in Rising Sun’s duck canvas Workers, slub tee, indigo warp and weft selvage canvas Outdoor Vest, American-loomed indigo selvage chambray workshirt, and selvage Ranch Hand jacket. Everything is worn without regard as he knows the garments we make do not need to be babied. These clothes can take care of themselves so the wearer can take care of business.
