With their new album Heartbeat Chronicles, set to be released on April 25, 2025, the South
Tyrolean indie-folk band Timbreroots takes their audience on an emotional journey. The album
blends deep reflections on self-discovery, community, and change with an engaging mix of folk,
alternative rock, and Americana. The newly released track The Tune We Hum serves as the musical
centerpiece of Heartbeat Chronicles, conveying its core message: music connects, transcends
boundaries, and fosters a sense of togetherness.
An Album Full of Emotion and Depth
Heartbeat Chronicles follows a protagonist who initially remains in their comfort zone. Songs like
My Own Bubble use playful melodies to paint a picture of carefree self-delusion. However, this
seemingly perfect world begins to crumble in Madness—dark guitar riffs and powerful drums
mirror the inner turmoil. What follows is a journey of self-awareness: Colourful Timbres marks a
moment of reflection, while There’s Still Light represents the turning point toward active change.
Through Empty Hands highlights letting go as the key to growth before The Tune We
Humultimately celebrates a sense of community and connection. The title track, Heartbeat,
concludes the album with a guitar piece—serving as a conciliatory epilogue to an impressive
transformation.
Bene and the Unique Timbrevibe
Behind Timbreroots is Bene (Benedikt Sanoll), an exceptional singer and fingerstyle guitarist. His
musical journey began in the picturesque vineyards of South Tyrol, where he took his first creative
steps alongside his brother Philipp and close friends. Inspired by artists like John Butler, Bon Iver,
and Jacob Collier, Bene developed the distinctive "Timbrevibe"—a fusion of indie folk, alternative
rock, Britpop, and orchestral elements. His songs are more than just music; they tell stories that
deeply resonate with listeners.
"Every person is a single tone with unique timbres and roots. When these tones come together in
harmonious symphony, they create an atmosphere of community where everyone can feel welcome
and at home." – Bene
Live on the Heartbeat Chronicles Tour 2025
To celebrate the album release, Timbreroots is going on tour, bringing the magic of their music to
stages across Europe. Whether through intimate acoustic sessions or electrifying concert
experiences, the band knows how to captivate their audience. Bene performs both as a solo artist—
with guitar, stompbox, and loop station—and alongside his longtime bandmates Philipp, Thomas,
Sebi, and Simon, whose musical talents create an unparalleled soundscape.
Fans can look forward to unforgettable evenings where music and emotions become one. More

Heartbeat Chronicles

In their latest single "Madness", Timbreroots shows a more powerful and intense side. The song, which came second in the Italian M4NG competition, is a critical reflection on the challenges of our society. From escaping into illusions to the uncontrollability of madness, the profound lyrics address important topics that are thought-provoking:

Megalomania, wars, oppression, the increasing extremisation of radical political tendencies and views of self-appointed experts and the ever-increasing danger of being gradually replaced by AI in a world that already is suffering a severe fever. Madness overtakes!
 
"You can't control when madness overtakes" - this is how the song ends in the epic and powerful finale, reminiscent of the intensity of singers such as Jared Leto (30 Seconds to Mars). This single serves as a prelude of the EP to be released in January 2025. It promises to take its listeners on an unprecedented emotional and musical journey.

Timbreroots' pursuit of musical authenticity and their impressive live performance make them a band to keep an eye on. With "Madness" they set another milestone in their burgeoning career and show that they are ready to achieve great things.

Madness (Radio Edit)

Lyrics:

I wanna live in democracy
But only when it suits me
I don't like to be restricted
By the public or the law
I'm comfortable with (yeah)
my contradictions
               
I live in my own bubble                                             
I don't need any trouble
I trust myself and the algorithm of Dr. Google
He knows what's best for me
He shows me what I wanna see
I live and let live, that's my philosophy

I don’t believe in humanity
I don’t need any scientists
I got my own experts
called AI & influencers
          
inundating me with spongy 
half truths showing the world anew to me
feeding me with naivety
leaving me in the misbelief that I am free     
                     
I live in my own bubble
I don't need any trouble
I trust myself and the algorithm of Dr. Google
He knows what's best for me
He shows me what I wanna see
I live and let live, that's my philosophy

My Own Bubble

DIE NEUE SINGLE
Mit dem am 25.10.2024 erscheinenden Song „Colorful Timbres“ öffnet sich der Protagonist einer neuen Welt, die er bisher nur in Schwarz-Weiß wahrgenommen hat. Die melancholischen Klänge begleiten seine Erkenntnis, dass das Leben ein Kaleidoskop aus Farben und Nuancen ist – jenseits von richtig oder falsch. Diese Einsicht führt ihn in eine Phase des Selbstzweifels, während er seine bisherigen Überzeugungen hinterfragt.
 
Musikalisch ist der Song reduziert und nachdenklich, mit minimalistischem Arrangement und Gitarrenklängen, die an Ben Howard und Bon Iver erinnern. Die Melodien spiegeln den emotionalen Wandel des Protagonisten wider und laden den Hörer zu tiefer Reflexion ein.
 
„Colorful Timbres“ ist eine kraftvolle Hymne auf die Selbstakzeptanz und die Suche nach innerem Frieden – ein Schlüsselstück auf der emotionalen Reise des kommenden Albums von Timbreroots.

Colorful Timbres

Lyrics:

I've walked the line, so blind to see,
The world was crying, calling out to me.
Ignored the warnings, turned away,
But now I hear what the winds convey.

Through the smoke and through the flames,
I see her heart, I feel her pain.
How could we let it go so far?
It's time to heal her every scar.

Why do we live this lie?
Does it feel right to let our mother die?

rivers dried, forests burned,
now I see, the lesson's learned.
We can rebuild, we can renew,
The power lies in what we choose.

Why do we live this lie?
Does it feel right to let our mother die?
There's still light, so why we just don't try?
Come on, let's fight now, you and I!

Every breath she gives, we owe her more,
Let's be the ones to heal her core.
The time has come to face our past,
And fight for her, this chance won't last.

Oh why do we live this lie?
Does it feel right to let our mother die?
There's still light, so why we just don't try?
Come on, let's fight now, you and I!

There's Still Light

Born from an instrumental idea by Sebi during band practice, its harmony struck a particularly sensitive chord with lead singer Bene, who was going through one of the darkest phases of his life. What began as a musical idea evolved into a powerful story of personal growth when Bene, struggling with what seemed to be an irreparable loss, found support in a profound conversation with his bandmates. "Sometimes you lose what you hold too tight, and then you find it in a different light" Bene sings in the chorus, capturing the song's central message - that our deepest losses can lead to our most meaningful insights. The track develops from intimate verses to soaring choruses, reflecting Bene's journey from despair to revelation. "Different Light" is more than just a song - it's a testament to the healing power of music and friendship. From the profound opening lines "I fell down deep, where the daylight dies" to the life-affirming conclusion by the fireside with loved ones, the track takes listeners on a journey from darkness to dawn, from loss to rediscovery.
