To say that Mike Savino is an innovator would be an understatement. Touring under the
moniker Tall Tall Trees, the banjo-wielding bard has reshaped the landscape of what is possible
with the instrument. On stage and in studio, Savino breaks down the banjo into its most basic
iteration, reminding audiences that the banjo is, at root, a drum. Coupled with his mastery of
electronic effects, loops, toy ray guns, and heaps of spontaneous creativity, Tall Tall Trees has
been encapsulating audience members worldwide with his mystifying solo shows, as well as
playing alongside fellow innovator Kishi Bashi.
His latest album Freedays is, in a way, his debut album. Having recorded two previous albums
in a traditional collaborative band setting, Freedays is the first album Savino wrote and
recorded as a solo project. Beginning in 2015, Savino took a much-needed respite from New
York City, where he had spent a decade and a half honing his craft, and assumed the role of
sole caretaker at an abandoned health retreat nestled in the green mountains of northern
Georgia. The Bird's Nest, as it was called, completely surrounded by national forest, provided
the freedom and space to work without time constraints or interruption.
