Deep Trees didn’t grow overnight. Somewhere between an old keyboard, a shoebox full of lyrics, and a mild
obsession with vintage reverb, the project took root in the daydreams of a misfit.
The sound? Think nostalgia dipped in neon—lo-fi heartache with hi-fi polish—wrapped in a synth-heavy hug with
glimpses of
off-beat skanking, all seen through a soft-focus lens.
Deep Trees is the curated musical project of songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Summer Redko, who got her
start as a sound engineer in recording studios supporting major and independent labels, with a growing collection of film
and
TV credits quietly building behind the scenes. There’s a cosmic yearning in her work, and a refusal to ever call
a track
“done.”
The upcoming EP, Smoking in Airports, strikes a delicate balance between digital and human. With contributions from standout musicians—drummer Nik Hughes (Bush, Andy Grammer, Puddle of Mudd), bassist Luca Giachi (Sony/BMG, Universal), and horn player Victor Mejia (when the stars and budgets align) — the music drifts through heartbreak, euphoria, and that strange shimmer of nostalgia you feel watching old home movies.
Follow for the vibes, stay for the feels.
