The Giving Tree Band
The Giving Tree Band is a rock & roll band from Yorkville, Illinois. They all live together, travel together and perform with a wide array of instruments from acoustic & electric guitars, slide guitars & banjos to violin, mandolin & pedal steel. Though the group uses an instrumentation largely associated with bluegrass and Americana, their sound often drums up comparisons to such classic rock icons as The Band, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, and The Beatles.
==History==
The Giving Tree Band was started by brothers Todd and Eric Fink and released their first full-length album - a double disc, entitled ''Unified Folk Theory'' - in 2007. The album features 33 songs of original material. In 2008, the band set out to record a carbon-neutral album, which was done at the Aldo Leopold Legacy Center in Baraboo, Wisconsin. The album was released in 2009, and was entitled ''Great Possessions'', which was the working title of conservationist Aldo Leopold's book, ''A Sand County Almanac''.
On September 21, 2010, the band released their third full-length album, ''The Joke, The Threat & The Obvious''. The album spent multiple weeks on various Americana radio charts, peaking at number 15 on the Roots Music Report and number 40 on the Americana Airplay Chart. The album also received critical acclaim, including a spot on ''Acoustic Guitar Magazines "Best Acoustic Albums of 2010" list, as well as garnering positive reviews from such publications as ''Relix Magazine'', ''The Huffington Post'', and ''American Songwriter''.
The group toured extensively in 2010, playing such notable festivals as South by Southwest, Wakarusa, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, and Forecastle Festival, along with such venues as The Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. and Millennium Park and the House of Blues in Chicago. When not touring, the band members all live together at a house in Yorkville, where they also record their albums.
