Led by Taylor Kirk, Timber Timbre weds haunting, folk and blues-inspired songwriting with sounds that range from artfully simple to cinematically lush. The singer/songwriter/producer's initial home-recorded releases hinted at the rich vocals and striking imagery that blossomed on 2009's Timber Timbre, the first of several albums nominated for the Polaris Prize in Kirk's native Canada. The project's sound shifted to complement the mood of each album perfectly, imbuing the murder ballads of 2011's Juno-nominated Creep On Creepin' On with '50s melodrama, adding touches of classic R&B to the heartache and longing of 2014's Hot Dreams, and heightening the social commentary of 2017's Sincerely, Future Pollution with dystopian '80s flashbacks. When Kirk and company returned with 2023's Lovage, Timber Timbre sounded as darkly compelling as ever.
