Crosstown Concerts Present Treeboy & Arc at Rough Trade Bristol.
Treeboy & Arc formed out of teenage friendships & New Year’s Eve encounters. After moving in together into a redbrick terrace in LS6, they transformed the damp basement into a somewhat rehearsal space where they began to truly forge their own sound.
The five-piece are a sonic example of “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts”, with each member working to serve the song - interlocking guitar melodies are propped up by sturdy, yet intricate, rhythms. The lyrics often dark and sinister sounding, you don’t need to listen hard to hear the tongue-in-cheek wit and cynicism in their deliveries that is so often associated with the North of England.
