TIMBER TIMBRE ANNOUNCES NEW RECORD CREEP ON CREEPIN’ ON

TIMBER TIMBRE ANNOUNCES NEW RECORD
CREEP ON CREEPIN’ ON
AVAILABLE APRIL 5TH ON ARTS & CRAFTS

Timber Timbre returns with Creep On Creepin’ On.
The follow-up to the band’s 2009 self-titled record, which was named Album of the Year by Eye Weekly and nominated to the long list for the Polaris Music Prize, multi instrumentalists Taylor Kirk, Mika Posen and Simon Trottier come together again on heartrending compositions that engage, transport and challenge.

Creep On Creepin’ On will be released April 5th on Arts & Crafts.

Kirk began the writing of the record two years previous, with tracks further assembled during a residency in Sackville, New Brunswick in June of 2010. Produced by the band and recorded at both The Treatment Room with Kees Dekker and inside a converted church studio with Grammy nominee Mark Lawson, the result is Timber Timbre’s most brilliant and robust record to date, a collection of 10 tracks that expands to incorporate rich and varied melodies, affecting lyricism and evocative vintage instrumentation.

From guttural groans on lead track “Bad Ritual” to the eerie doo-wop-inspired pleas of “Lonesome Hunter,” the album is textured and commanding, stirring proof of the unwavering powers of obsession and possession. And while settings and collaborators continue to change for the band, the guiding inspiration behind the songs has not.

“The idea is to make music we love and therefore embrace the risk of sounding like all the music we’ve ever loved, all at once,” Kirk explains.

With Creep On Creepin’ On, Timber Timbre has succeeded in reaching a place it was long destined for, where its music is as powerful and extraordinary as it has always been unmistakable.
