Twisted Timber uses a range of acoustic instruments and voices to create a soundscape of covers and original songs.
Music style: Acoustic cruisy folk rock jazz country blues...and beyond.
Twisted Timber hails from Raglan, New Zealand, a small west coast town with a big reputation as a creative community. The band evolved from group of musicians who have worked together in various line-ups over the years. Twisted Timber uses a range of acoustic instruments and vocals to back and enhance fresh and lively interpretations of old standards , contemporary covers, and traditional songs. Original songs by Lynne Wilkins and Rene Andre evoke kiwi imagery, from a Humber hot rod to black sand beaches; and explore the human condition (but not always in a serious vein).
Lynne Wilkins: vocals, guitar, flute (boehm and celtic), whistles, harmonica
Michael Mackinnon: vocals, guitar
Rene Andre: vocals, guitar
Redgie Valente: vocals, bass
Antonio Karam: vocals, percussion
...with occasional appearances from guest artists.
