TDawg Present is excited to bring you some exciting fresh old-time music by the The Tillers and The Montvales, both from Cincinatti, OH!
The Tillers have been thumping their own distinctive sound of string band style folk music for a decade, riding it all over the country and across the sea. Four studio albums and one live record have won them praise as modern folk storytellers of the national soundscape. Self-described "retired" punk rockers, that punk influence gave their sound a distinctive bite, setting them apart from most other folk acts, creating a hard-driving percussive strum and stomp. Their sound has proven to be an appropriate fit with a wide range of musical styles- traditional folk, bluegrass, jazz, punk rock and anything else they might run into. They have shared the stage with a broad swath of national touring acts, ranging from renowned folk legends such as Doc Watson, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Guy Clark, Country Joe McDonald, Jerry Douglas, Iris Dement, Pokey LaFarge, The Hackensaw Boys and The Carolina Chocolate Drops to rambunctious rock daredevils like the Legendary Shack Shakers.
Songwriter duo The Montvales honed their skills in Knoxville, TN, performing on the air for WDVX and the old-time music community in town, before relocating to Cincinatti. Their sound careens recklessly across the whole folk-country spectrum, showcasing The Montvales’ distinctive harmonies and building a sonic world just expansive and surprising enough to hold the wide-eyed existentialism of the stories and questions raised by the lyrics.
