Tall Tall Trees is an alternative country-folk band based in Harlem, NY. With a sound that's heavily steeped in old-time and bluegrass music, yet riddled with fuzz pedals, iron maiden quote-ables, clanking percussion and surf harmonies, members Mike Savino (vocals, banjo, bass), Kyle Sanna (guitar, vocals), and Mathias Kunzli (drums, percussion, vocals) create music that is both traditional and innovative.
Tall Tall Trees is gearing up for the release of their self-titled debut album, due out in June. Recorded between January and December 2008, the TTT LP features 11 songs by songwriter Mike Savino, plus a song from the Muppets, whom the band identify as its primary influence.
Savino's banjo is complemented by jangling guitars, toy box percussion and his own throaty vocals, serving up a range of tunes from indie-pop jems to full on bluegrass space-rock.
Tall Tall Trees' CD Release Party is on Wednesday, June 24, 2009 from 9-11pm at Arlene's Grocery (95 Stanton St.), NYC.
Other acts include The Veveritse Brass Band and very special guests!
