TALL TALL TREES
12 songs heavily steeped in old-time and bluegrass
music, yet riddled with fuzz pedals, clanking toy box percussion and surf harmonies make the debut album from Tall Tall Trees a unique listening experience for fans of banjos, honest songs, and off-beat storytelling.

Produced by Mike Savino, the self-titled debut album from Tall Tall Trees features 12 tracks packed with banjos, surf harmonies, fuzz pedals, Brazilian rhythms, and muppetesque choruses. Recorded between January and December 2008, the album captures the adventurous spirit of Savino's songwriting and the fruits of his longtime collaboration with guitarist Kyle Sanna and drummer/percussionist, Mathias Kunzli. On several tracks, TTT's banjo/guitar/bass/drums line-up is augmented by guest appearances from Patrick Farrell on accordian, Lev "Ljova" Zhurbin on famiola (hybrid viola), Micah Killion on trumpet, and Rich Stein on percussion creating a sound caught somewhere between bluegrass, afro-beat and indie rock. The cover and lyric poster were beautifully illustrated by Spanish artist Mortimer and packaged in an environmentally friendly manner.
