Tinyfolk was Russ Woods from Chicago, IL. Occasionally other people (Meghan Lamb of iron like nylon, Jim Laczkowski of Garden On A Trampoline) contributed as well. Tinyfolk’s songs are pop songs, though you might not be able to tell right away. They are. Promise.
Tinyfolk stopped being Tinyfolk in January 2011 in order to work on his new band Pretty Swans. You can download their new EP free here and preorder their new album here.
