TIM ROGERS & THE TWIN SET: ‘TINES OF STARS UNFURLED’ INTERVIEW

Beloved rock’n’roll raconteur Tim Rogers, together with his band The Twin Set, have announced their March / April 2023 national tour to mark the release of highly anticipated long player Tines of Stars Unfurled, which is out now. Tines of Stars Unfurled is a sequel to Tim Rogers’ classic solo debut of ‘99 What Rhymes With Cars and Girls, marking the welcome return of his fiddle-and-squeezebox country-blues compadres The Twin Set. With time to spare and initially just as a writing exercise, Rogers set about re-working ‘Cars and Girls’, re-thinking the characters, bringing them up to 2023 speed. He then enquired of his Twin Set band mate Jen Anderson whether there was merit in taking these updated songs a step further. Jen said go for it and so they did
Australian Musician editor Greg Phillips caught up with Tim Rogers over a zoom call, where we found Tim in a reflective mood, the best kind really to get into a deep and meaningful discussion about the songs and the creation of the Tines of Stars Unfurled album.
