PaisleyTunes I've seen Mike Savino play solo & with Kishi Bashi a few times now. I'm endlessly impressed with his banjo skills.

Still awaiting a solo album. Favorite track: The Girl from the Chinese Food Restaurant.

about

“a perfect storm of catchy songwriting, spot on performances, and crisp, inventive production” JEZEBEL MUSIC

TALL TALL TREES
The self-titled debut album from Tall Tall Trees is definitely a unique listening experience for fans of honest songs, and off-beat storytelling. Riddled with banjos, surf harmonies, fuzz pedals, and clanking toy box percussion, the album captures the adventurous spirit of Mike Savino's songwriting and the fruits of his longtime collaboration with guitarist Kyle Sanna and drummer/percussionist, Mathias Kunzli.
Recorded in home studios between January and December 2008 and released June 2009 via the band's own start-up Good Neighbor Records, the album has garnered attention for its bold blend of bluegrass, afro-beat and indie rock.

The band has since added bassist Benjamin Campbell to the line-up and has been busy playing lots of shows and working up new material for their follow up album. The second album from Tall Tall Trees has been entirely fan funded and is slated for release Summer 2011.

about

Tall Tall Trees Asheville, North Carolina

The man behind Tall Tall Trees is Mike Savino, a pioneer in the the world of experimental and psychedelic banjo music. Often performing solo, Savino’s modern take on the one-man band involves running his homemade instrument, dubbed the "Banjotron 6500" through a slab of effects and loopers, bowing, drumming, and strumming out multi-textured arrangements to support his lyrically driven songs. ... more
