Mike Savino, the multi-instrumentalist and songwriter behind Tall Tall Trees, had big plans for getting through the pandemic with his sanity intact. He built a recording studio in the basement of his home in Asheville, North Carolina, setting himself up to lay down the tracks for a new album. To help see them across the finish line, Savino invited his longtime friend and member of indie rock mainstays WHY? Josiah Wolf to help him out. But everything changed once they set up their gear and started playing together.
“I had a bunch of songs, but we didn’t use any of those at all,” Savino remembers. “We were so into improvising that we just started recording until we stumbled onto something that excited us both and chased that. Josiah’s knack for quirky and experimental beats brought me into places I’d never go alone.”
