She just so happened to be free on that day, and was able to drop by the studio to add some keyboards and vocals, before she left flew out on European tour with her band, Wooden Wand.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- Random Ad stuff --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2076862002005673\" data-ad-slot=\"3107208401\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p><script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Later the following summer, Stewart e-mailed Simpson, and asked if she might like to write with him. The pair started swappign notes, pieces of songs, offering suggestions, and also finding a common musical voice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The pieces became full blown songs as they shared their singular vision, and eventually they met up again at Ol Elegante Studio, in Birmingham, Alabama, and shared it with producer Lester Nuby. Calling on the pedal steel talents of Nashville musician Scott Murray, this was to become their debut self-titled EP, released in 2015.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Move forward three years, and Stewart and Simpson have further developed their style, leading to new eight track release, &#8216;The Family&#8217;. Recorded and mixed by Lynn Bridges, known for working with Devandra Banhart, and Future Elevators, it&#8217;s clear how much the pair have aligned themselves even further since their 2015 offering; their friendship transcends their music.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Colors&#8217; is a moving track with a music video showing the gentle and loving relationship between a mother and her daughter; there&#8217;s a sense of a fly on the wall viewing. Small touches such as an eviction notice on the table, and a bleeding hand convey the idea that not all is well. Regardless however, they love each other, and so long as they have each other by the hand nothing can come in between them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Find out more about Timber online on their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/timbermusic1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/timber_music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> accounts, as well as their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.timber-music.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_45155\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1CN2jfuSLnI?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Timber - &quot;Colors&quot; Official Video\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/1CN2jfuSLnI\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Timber, comprising Janet Simpson and Will Stewart might not ever have happened, if it wasn&#8217;t for the intervention of divine providence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":43251,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[9,640],"tags":[14897,18110,144,939,77,370,102,81,18111,18109],"class_list":["post-43235","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-releases","category-videos","tag-colors","tag-janet-simpson","tag-new-album","tag-new-ep","tag-new-release","tag-new-single","tag-timber","tag-video","tag-will-stewart","tag-wooden-wand"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p5yMhl-bfl","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":29641,"url":"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2017\/08\/rod-stewart-dnce-recording-da-ya-think-im-sexy\/","url_meta":{"origin":43235,"position":0},"title":"Rod Stewart Collaborates With DNCE For Re-Imagining Of Classic &#8216;Da Ya Think I&#8217;m Sexy&#8217;","author":"Lisa Hafey","date":"24\/08\/2017","format":false,"excerpt":"Sir Rod Stewart kicks off his new partnership with Republic Records, by joining forces with DNCE for a re-imagined version of one of the most iconic dance tracks of all time, Stewart's 'Da Ya Think I\u2019m Sexy'.
