Tissue is Seattle duo Dean Whitmore (Unnatural Helpers) on expressive percussion and Gabi Page-Fort (Stickers, Dragon) on guitar and piano, with both contributing vocals.
A PICK OF TWINS WITH MATCHING DOGS (releases June 23, 2018)
Songs for Beginners meets Songs from a Room in a strange bar where children are playing and the jukebox holds only Raincoats and Su Tissue records. This debut LP from Seattle band Tissue evokes the death-defying dedication of the Olympic cyclist ("Gold Medal"), the nostalgia of checkbooks and Walden Pond ("Frogs"), and highlights of the strange, practical truths that define our lives (prepare for a dark turn on the B side - homage to Neil Young's On the Beach?). Featuring Chris Costalupes on bass, Cassidy Whitmore on backup vocals ("Gold Medal"), and Kurt Bloch on percussion ("Airplanes & Cameras.")

TISSUE
Echoing the variety of an eclectic record collection, from Sebadoh III and Alice Coltrane to Gong and Francis Bebey, the debut self-titled cassette is a folky interpretation of circularity and jazz-punk, featuring luminary friends like Nils Petersen, Kurt Bloch, and Nick Merz lending guitar and bass licks. From wanderers to well-water-drinkers, the songs offer call-and-response to the thirst of being alive. Stamped cover.
