Tall Tall Trees brought the people closer to god with their psych-folk banjo greatness! Mike Savino (Banjotron 5000, vocals) and Micah Thomas (drums, vocals) made the sanctuary sing. Apparently, there is no wrong way to play the Banjotron 5000, with Mike strumming, picking, pounding the skin with a drum stick, and bowing it like an over-sized electric fiddle. After completing a full set on stage, Mike joined Kishi Bashi for their performance, even playing a very large stand-up bass shaped banjo. It was truly a spiritual experience to enjoy Tall Tall Trees in this downtown house of worship.
