about

"...an important new record in Indian jazz lore..." —Rolling Stone

tincturesmusic.bandcamp.com

'Heads and Tales' is the first studio album of eclectic Indian piano-guitar duo, Tinctures – a series of fifteen immersive sound-worlds.

Tinctures' intimate chamber-music can be described as a confluence of Hindustani and Carnatic, jazz and European classical music and has a distinct aesthetic that is neither traditionalist nor modern, embracing the infinite possibilities that emerge through the meditative involvement of interacting freely through music.

What drives the Bangalore-Berlin duo is a mutual love for creating sonic narratives unbound by traditional ideas of consonance and dissonance, rhythm, or structure.
