Twisted Timber, a young and progressive Czech band, is proud to release its first CD, entitled Freeride of Our Lives. It comes just after 3 years of playing together. The project contains 14 original tracks composed by almost all the band members. Except two instrumentals, all the songs are sung in English. Original sound of Twisted Timber is supported by American singer and guitarist Matthew Whitten living in Prague.
Twisted Timber's art cannot be described as typical bluegrass, but is rather modern mixture of folk, country, pop-rock and swing music played with classical bluegrass instrument casting. This means that all the acoustic music lovers should be satisfied as there is a lot of experimentation. Nevertheless, fans of bluegrass, folk or gospel will enjoy their music as there are some hard driving bluegrass tracks, folk material with intricate melodies and an originally composed 4-part harmony gospel song.
