After a long hiatus, Timothy Walsh returned to his first love, playing guitar and songwriting. Based in Madison, Wisconsin, he founded Penelope's Thrill in 2015 with his son, Andrew, and picked up where he left off playing in garage bands in New Jersey and Boston. In 2019, Walsh took to the road with Tent Show Troubadours to hone his live performing skills, playing small clubs, bars, and music festivals, including Summerfest and even a gig at Lambeau Field for a Green Bay Packers preseason game. Recorded over the lockdown year of 2020-2021, the debut Penelope's Thrill album, "Twilight on Tunnel Road," is a groundbreaking concept album, rich with layered guitars and echoes of rockabilly, surf guitar, and '60s-era twelve-string chime. Produced and mixed by Walsh, the album includes contributions from Ben Lokuta (drums), Wendy Lynn Staats (violin), Ben Jaeger (tuba), Amanda Kim Sanderson (vocals), and Akmaral Zykayeva (violin).
