Lost In the Trees

Lost in the Trees is the brainchild of singer/guitarist Ari Picker, a Chapel Hill native who started his career as a member of the B-Sides. Picker's studies at the Berklee College of Music led him to attempt an orchestral effort, and he adopted the moniker Lost in the Trees for the project. After assembling a small group of musicians, he recorded a folk-influenced EP, Time Taunts Me, and released it on Trekky Records in early 2007. All Alone in an Empty House, a lush sophomore album that featured strings, horns, and full orchestration, arrived in 2008, and was reissued two years later, following the group's signing with Anti- Records. ~ William Ruhlmann & Andrew Leahey
