Named after the George Jones-Roger Miller song, Tall Tall Trees is the indie folk project of songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Mike Savino. Tall Tall Trees' 2009 self-titled debut album was a full-band effort combining traditional bluegrass, folk, and world music influences. As Tall Tall Trees eventually morphed into a solo project, touring necessitated customized equipment as well as mastery of live looping techniques. Soon, Savino's music transcended rootsier origins into the realm of psychedelic pop, often involving the use of looping and effects pedals in tandem with his highly modified electric banjo. By the arrival of his third album, 2017's Freedays, the project had a decidedly more psychedelic bent, while 2020's A Wave of Golden Things took a more stripped-down approach to his good-natured songs. The project's genre-melding 2023 album, Stick to the Mystical I, emerged from improvisatory home studio sessions with drummer Josiah Wolf (Why?).
