Twisted Pine 

“If you’re not yet familiar with Twisted Pine, it’s time to fall in love.”

— The Poke Around


Since the last time they were here at Steve's, Twisted Pine released their joyous third LP, 
LOVE YOUR MIND. from Signature Sounds Recordings.

The title represents the quartet landing after several years of touring,
serious introspection, bouts of self-doubt,
glorious bursts of creativity, and many after-hour festival jam sessions that had them pickin’ til dawn.
What started as a (semi-)traditional bluegrass band in the trenches of
the storied Massachusetts’ Americana scene a decade ago
has bloomed into an ensemble ready, willing and able to race down any artistic detour.

They can still pick with the best of them.
But even the expansive “progressive bluegrass” label doesn’t come close
to capturing the scope of Love Your Mind.
The LP is full of buoyant pop and delicate folk, hootenanny twang and old-school r&b grooves,
plus plenty of thoughtful, intense, and playful lyrics.


Co-produced by the band and longtime-collaborator
Dan Cardinal at his studio Dimension Sound in Boston,
the album is the sound of Twisted Pine now —
experimental production, fearless songwriting featuring input from each member,
finely-crafted collaborative arrangements, playing that is sometimes virtuosic, always visceral.

The sound of a band that demands you Love Your Mind.


Twisted Pine is Kathleen Parks on fiddle and lead vocals,
Dan Bui on mandolin, Chris Sartori on bass, and Anh Phung on flute.

Everybody sings.
