“Listen to Timber Timbre and you might peg the band for natives of Louisiana swampland, True Blood territory; the sound is spooky folk with rhythms informed by the blues. Timber Timbre actually hail from Canada, where core member, Taylor Kirk, first began writing music in a cabin in the woods. The songs draw you in and keep you, wrapping an eerie web of ghostly strings, guitar, drums, and humming. The Low Anthem round out the show, bringing a hefty dose of old-fashioned Americana to the evening.”

89.9 KCRW, When You Awake, Rollo & Grady and The Fold present...THE LOW ANTHEM
The Low Anthem formed as a professional band in 2006 in Providence, RI. They have recorded three full-length records, won Best Album of 2008 from the Providence Phoenix, and received national radio play. Low Anthem will be going on tour this spring with The Avett Brothers. TIMBER TIMBRE The elements are deceptively simple: a confident, but hushed voice, understated guitar, strings and keyboard flourishes, and a subtle percussive beat. Timber Timbre front man Taylor Kirk is making pop as if it was meant to sound haunted. Something grounded in a strange place where genre descriptions like blues, country, and folk intersect becoming secondary to the precision of the moods being conjured.
