Stones’ is viciously human,” says Atwood Magazine of latest

“Kansas-bred, Los Angeles-based duo Tree Machines are a band you should get
familiar with. With vocalist Doug
Wooldridge leading the way, the clip looks like vintage L.A., you know,
from the ‘80s like ‘The Terminator’.
Oh, and the song rocks too.” – PureVolume
on the “Waiting On The Sun” music
video by Tree Machines
“Raw feeling that comes from a deep, dark void within.
For all its electronics and mechanics, ‘Weights
and Stones’ is viciously human.” – Atwood
Magazine on “Weights and Stones”

After releasing a debut EP in 2015 that contained its hard-to-ignore,
first-ever single “Fucking Off Today,”
the members of then Lawrence, Kansas-based band, Tree Machines left mid-western malaise behind to move into a house
in the tiny Los Angeles neighborhood of Canoga Park.
There, vocalist and lyricist Doug Wooldridge, his bandmate Patrick
Aubry, and producer, engineer, and drummer, Mike Giffin (all three contribute to the various instrumentation
and music of Tree Machines), turned
the house’s garage into a tracking room, and began creating the first
full-length Tree Machines album Up
For Air, scheduled for release in late 2017.
Two years since the release of that first EP, Tree Machines presented “Waiting On The Sun,” the first
single from Up For Air, followed by the song’s lyric video, a remix
from emerging producer :DFACE, and
now, the track’s epic music
video.
“The shoot began after a couple drinks at a dive bar
near the Paradise Motel,” explains Wooldridge
about the music video’s sequences which prompted PureVolume’s references to “The
Terminator” in its premiere coverage of the clip. “We had just wrapped up a
few establishing shots when some patrons of the motel left the room we were
parked in front of and left the door wide open. We spent 30 minutes filming
inside a room we hadn't paid for hoping that the couple that had left weren't
gonna drop back in,” he says.
With the completion of Up For Air drawing near, Tree Machines is also sharing a second track from the album, “Weights and
Stones”.
“In our old band, Doug
and I had always talked about an electronic component to our songs,” explains Aubry of the track. “We were listening
to Radiohead’s The King of Limbs, Alt-J’s debut, and Glass Animals. Needless to say, after forming Tree Machines, and as we were working on 'Weights and Stones,' we were enjoying taking it to an electronic,
clubby type of sound. And then we heard Lewis
Del Mar’s song ‘Loud(y),’ and it
really opened our eyes. I think of ‘Weights
and Stones’ as our official ‘hello.’”
Up
For Air, the debut album by Los
Angeles-based band Tree Machines,
arrives in 2017, preceded by the singles “Waiting
On The Sun” and “Weights and Stones”.
