“I wanted to create something that was a little more
retro and hip hop-inspired,” says Mike
Giffin, the behind-the-scenes producer and multi-instrumentalist in Tree Machines about “Up For Air,” the title track from the
band’s upcoming debut album, out now. “Almost instantly, Doug (Wooldridge, the
band’s lyricist and vocalist) he came up with the catchy melody and rhythmic
patterns that are still there in the song to this day. Who knew it was going to
be the album’s title track of the album?”
Wooldridge concurs, “I’ve always had an affinity for this song
ever since Mike brought the beat in
for us to listen to. Now that everything is said and done, it’s one of my favorite
songs on the album.”
For the music video for the
song, recently
premiered via Los Angeles-based music discovery website Grimy Goods, director Andrew Shepherd explains his style.
“The style was meant to reflect a dream-like state of
being in the cycle of a 9-to-5 job, while yearning for artistic freedom. The
inspiration I drew from their music influenced this concept for the video in
beautiful ways.”
“I loved shooting this video,” Woodridge says. “Our lead actress Amanda Kwasniak was the best person to bring life to the visual
representation of this track. Her personality allowed us to get an incredibly
intimate view of her life.”
Tree Machines will play songs from Up For Air, as well as its
2015 debut EP, on a two-week tour starting this Thurs., Oct. 19th in Denver at Lion’s Lair.

Relocated from Lawrence, Kansas, Tree Machines built a safe room in Los Angeles. Not for security of
the conventional kind, but for a place to unleash, and make the kind of music that
is at once vulnerable and strong, without fear of consequence. Anthems for
times that don’t make sense, but carve a path forward.
Here, Douglas
Wooldridge (vocalist, lyricist), bandmate Patrick Aubry, and producer Mike
Giffin (all three contribute to the various instrumentation and music)
spent two years creating Up For Air, the debut Tree Machines full-length album, out
now on the band’s Man In The Machine
label.
Up
For Air follows-up 2015’s debut Tree Machines EP, which contained the
band’s first single “Fucking Off Today,”
a difficult-to-ignore opening salvo that expressed Midwestern malaise (which
these former Kansans know all too well) in a new way. Three more Tree Machines singles appeared during
the summer of that year.

Machines are available for interviews. Contact Josh
