Timber Timbre: creepin on

Taylor Kirk aka Timber Timbre from the rural settings of Brooklin, ON makes you feel like you’re alone in a wooden shed and all you have is a book and a hunting rifle for shooting cans. His songs are folky and swampy but also none of the above. The Arts and Crafts artist takes time away from his tour to answer a few silly questions.

1) Your songs sound ghostly, some call it swampy like the soundtrack to “there will be blood”, do you have plans to do any musical scores? or other artistic endeavors?
I’ve had some offers to work on film projects but just haven’t had any time. I just finished producing a recording for Ghost Bees (now known as Tasseomancy) and it sounds pretty terrific. Once touring lets up a bit, we’ll start working on new music.

2) How excited are you to tour with the low anthem?
Very.

3) What is your relationship with nature?
Husband.

4) How has it inspired your music?
I spent my formative years in a fairly rural setting, and though I’ve been living in big cities for a long time, I still tend to draw on this imagery quite a lot for inspiration.

5) What’s the state of Canadian music right now?
Right now I think it’s New York state.
