🎙️ ifitbeyourwill Ep. 20 • Twin Bridges

Thankful for the conversation with Zach Gerzon of Twin Bridges. From his home in Portland Oregon, we chatted about Zach’s beginnings with punk rock music, and how he ultimately found his muse in the cello. Twin Bridges is on the heels of releasing their latest record Fertile Ashes to great fanfare, combining neo-classical elements to their brand of indie pop makes for a great listen.  Enjoy 🎙️

Twin Bridges started as a solo project, but it has evolved into more of a band setting with Zach’s gifted circle of musician friends contributing to live shows and recordings. The cast for Fertile Ashes includes Zach on cello, lead vocals, and engineering; Kylie Mcdermot on trumpet; Julia Michel on clarinet and saxophone; Chris Lazerek on bass clarinet; Jeff Kuhns on bassoon; Margaret Wehr on violin; and additional vocalists Lindsay Clark, Erisy Watt, Jeremy Ferarra and Chloe Serkissian.

natalie nicoles - Lucent - 2015

"Lucent" is an organic overflow of a honest creative process. With nods to traditional American and Celtic folk, it has modern textures and production that lend itself to a myriad of other genres far beyond traditional and contemporary folk. The entire album is centered around growth, and coming to terms with change, which the album artwork (done by the incomparable Marissa Quinn) lends itself to. The album title "Lucent" means glowing with or giving off light. I believe that a glow, even the softest one, can stand in all weather, and we should always grasp it as our hope for positivity and growth. 

I hope these songs help you to grow and embrace your seasons of change. I create to make people feel in hopes that these projects fester in the deepest parts of your soul and to warm the smallest cockles of your heart. My sincerest thanks for taking a listen, and I truly hope you enjoy this record.
