Tu Fawning - The Felt Sense



Tu Fawning is a project of Joe Haege and Corrina Repp. Both Haege and Repp have been playing in Portland and abroad for many years now. However, a mutual desire to achieve something outside the bounds of their other projects, 31Knots (Haege) and Corrina Repp (Repp), lead both of them to begin collaboration on each other's albums. This is when the ideas for what would become Tu Fawning began to take shape.

To the surprise of both of them, they found themselves crawling out of their respective shells to create a new and exciting process that was nowhere near its end. Once the decision had been made to start a full blown project together they recruited Toussaint Perrault and Liza Reitz, adding horns/guitar and piano/violin, respectively.

First single, The Felt Sense, taken from debut album Hearts on hold, is a haunting piece where heart-pulsing drums contrast with Repp's soulful vocal performance, glossing over lyrics about lost love.
