Twisted Pine opts for "Right Now"
Tuesday, June 16, 2020 – - Twisted Pine, once a straightforward, Boston-based bluegrass act, will expand its musical horizons with more of a string band sound on their new album, "Right Now," coming Aug. 14.
The first single is "Don't Come Over Tonight."
"You could call it, 'neo-folk indie soul avant jazz jam grass-icana' but that doesn't quite roll off the tongue," said Twisted Pine bassist Chris Sartori.
The group also includes Dan Bui on mandolin, Kathleen Parks vocals and flutist Anh Phung.
The 10-song set is diverse with "Amadeus Party" a bluegrass meets James Brown sound. The group also covers Father John Misty. "The music is easier to feel than it is to describe," Sartori said. "Genre is a construct anyways right?"
The track list is:
Right Now
Amadeus Party
Papaya
Well, You Can Do It Without Me
Come Along Jody
Dreamaway
Talkeetna
Don't Come Over Tonight
Fogo de Chow
Tomorrow the Sun Will Rise

After gaining a following on the acoustic scene as a band with progressive bluegrass leanings and roots, Massachusetts-based Twisted Pine's self-titled release finds they've, well, progressed quite a bit. The 11 tracks find them a bit more toward the jazz and swing side of things. Kathleen Parks is a dynamic fiddler, who has developed her own stockpile of unexpected and rewarding licks, while mandolinist Dan Bui is likewise unafraid to stray outside the conventional lines. ...
