Folk rock outfit Two Wings are Tin Angel Records' newest signing and they will be flying from their Glaswegian nest this spring. The band will be promoting the single 'Eikon', ahead of their debut album 'Love's Spring', which will be released in the UK on 30th April via Coventry-based Tin Angel Records.
As the noughties came to a close, Two Wings (whose core members are singer/multi-instrumentalist/visual artist Hanna Tuulikki and guitarist/singer Ben Reynolds) had its birth. Two Wings channels the experimentations and explorations of both artist's previous projects into some of the most beautiful, melodic, harmonious and progressive songs to be heard this side of the 1970's.
Hanna's experimental song-based project Nalle was described by Wire Magazine as "easily some of the most convincing free-folk the UK has ever produced". She was also a member of free form jazz folk ensemble Scatter and The Family Elan. Ben has been a solo artist for many years and his numerous releases include the 2009 solo guitar album How Day Earnt Its Night, released by New York's Tompkins Square Records. Ben was also the original lead-guitarist in critically acclaimed Glasgow folk-rockers Trembling Bells and has collaborated with a number of other artists including Glasgow's Alasdair Roberts and Tin Angel Records' Baby Dee.
Two Wings' line-up is completed by instrument builder and bass guitarist Kenny Wilson, singer Lucy Duncombe and drummer Owen Curtis Williams (Wood Pigeon, Eagleowl, Rob St John, Benni Hemm Hemm).
