In These Trees is an alternative indie music project led by Binnie Klein. Klein's lyrical stories are suffused with human longing and memory and pair gracefully with soulful melodies from the artists who perform her work. With her extensive background in music as a radio DJ and a career in writing, Klein seeks to elevate her words through collaboration with rising artists. "Orchard" is her premier single inspired by her audio memoir, 10 Days in Newark, in collaboration with Australian singer/songwriter Tartie.
As a long-time DJ at free-form radio station WPKN, Binnie receives many promotional CD’s from hopeful artists. She tries to listen to most of them, just in case there is a gem that will fit with her show’s eclectic mix. When Australian singer/songwriter Tartie sent a few tunes, Binnie chose “Winter’s Girl” to play on her show. The two women, decades apart in age, began to chat on Skype — about dogs, about music, about politics, found a wonderful symmetry. Binnie encouraged Tartie to finish up a rough mix of “Ablaze,” about the Australian wildfires and asked if Tartie might take a look at some of Binnie's lyrics. “Orchard” emerged from that question, and amidst a great geographic distance and a pandemic — the song began to take shape. With help from Grammy award-winning producer David Baron, “Orchard” was born. The second single, "Sky, Ocean" will be released in September, along with a music video. In These Trees is working on an album with David Baron, "The Quiver."
