New Single “True Vine (Fiddle + Banjo version) out now! Bandcamp | Spotify | Apple Music

Distance Walk is a Denver-based indie folk quartet. Their mix of old-time folk, post-punk, Celtic and baroque music creates a melodic sound that is at turns ethereal and down to earth.

The band features Olivia Shaw on fiddle, Niki Tredinnick (The Dollhouse Thieves) on vocals, clarinets, and percussion, Seth Fine on guitar, and Barry Osborne on vocals and clawhammer banjo.

Friends before they played music together, the band came together in 2019 for a one off show at Swallow Hill Music. It went so well they kept it going and their sound rapidly evolved into something that draws on the strengths of their unique chemistry and surprising instrumentation.

On March 7, 2020 the band played Mutiny Information Cafe and the enthusiastic and intrigued response from the audience confirmed they were onto something. A week later Denver shut down due to COVID-19 restrictions, but the band kept collaborating. By June they had five songs to take into the studio, which they recorded over the summer at The Mousetrap Recording Studio in Denver. The result is Distance Walk, their self-titled debut EP., out now on Recessive Goth Records.

Despite COVID-related closures, the band remained active in 2020, recording covers of beloved 1980s songs that contained clues for that summer’s city-wide History Colorado scavenger hunt. The band’s single “Come A Little Bug” was also chosen for inclusion in TIMESTAMP, “a collection of music made during times of isolation and civil unrest in 2020” from Free People Records.
