The Winks and Tights

Exploring the space that exists between two virtues: nostalgic and innovative, Drip Audio is proud to release a dual album by two pioneering musical projects, THE WINKS and TIGHTS. Both groups share the same musical ideal - obvious, considering they share several of the same members. And both projects seep a very real, personal spirit. The Winks unfurl their butterfly wings on this, their second official release. Revealing new tricks wrapped in a historic carapace, the MANDOLIN, CELLO, and PERCUSSION trio endow with a refreshing dialect of pop language. The modern framework is there, but the sounds are different - vintage and unusual like antique arms pointing to infinite roots in time and culture - places in history obscured by dust and cobwebs, finally rediscovered, polished, and prepared for the modern world.
