Tree Pit working on their Debut album

Two years back in the summer of 2008 three guys met in London, 2000 miles away from their hometown in Israel, where they grew up together. It was the beginning of Tree Pit. Nim Sadot (Bass Guitar), Yaron Rosenblum (Drums) and Lior Seker (Lead vocals, Guitar) the three band members come from different musical backgrounds and influences. That time they all had different projects going on; found themselves living in the cold but influential city of London. The different musical backgrounds created the Trio’s unique blend and after two years of working together the seeds of the Tree started to reveal from its Pit.
All three were born in the early 80’s with a real passion for music and since an early age they have been playing in different bands: Lior Seker- was the singer of a Progressive Rock band named Egroll. One of their many achievements was to play as the opening act for Jethro Tull on their 2008 tour. Lately he took part in a project called Ephrat which took the stages as the warm-up band for Dream Theater in their 2009 tour. Yaron Rozenblum- was the drummer of an Israeli Rock band The Music Of Chance which released their album ‘Me’ in 2005 and the lead singer of another Israeli Rock band - The Following. Yaron is also the drummer for the North London based Indie Rock band – The Playing Fields that released two critically acclaimed albums. Nim Sadot- Took part in a wide spectrum of different projects, one of them is the Afro-Beat band Oziozaamusic . All three worked as Producers at a Soho based recording studio, which gave the band its initial name “The Producers”. 
Since the beginning the band has been doing endless sessions perfecting their sound and finding their own unique voice, recording and re-recording songs trying to turn their music into a cohesive whole that melts their different worlds of Folk, Rock, Fusion and Jazz together. Describing their own brewed sound the band members referrers to an early comparison made by one of their contemporaries “Imagine hearing Peter Gabriel playing with John Coltrane “. 
After testing and experimenting with their material behind the walls of the studio and the rehearsal rooms the band started to explore the live scene of the UK performing at the legendary 100 Club and in well known venues such as The Good Ship, 93 Feet East, Wilmington Arms amongst others. The reaction from the rising fan base was incredible as more and more familiar faces began to show up gig after gig. The ones who got to see them live enjoyed one of the most energetic shows in the UK in recent years. The ones that missed the shows can anticipate to their next tour following the release of the upcoming album. 
“Tree Pit’s style marries spacey guitar and mellow vocals with one of the tightest rhythm section in recent years.” (Ian De Sylva - The Kensington And Chelsea Review)
In the end of 2010 we find Tree Pit start working on their debut album to be released in the summer of 2011. The recording will take place in the beginning of January 2011 at Soho Studios in London and at The Sickroom in Norfolk. Producer Guy Katsav who worked with the likes of Laura Marling, The Gossip, Noah And The Whale, I Blame Coco and many more, will be in charge of the production/mixing of the album in collaboration with the band. “After working on our material for two and a half years and finding our true sound we are ready to get into the studio” say the band members.
