Tinlin equates to a songwriting partnership whose emphasis lies firmly in the production of original and honest, yet well-crafted music.
With material born of an eclectic mix of both classical and contemporary musical influences, we incorporate a unique instrumentation of acoustic guitar, mandolin and percussion, intertwined with bold vocal harmonies from the brothers Tinlin.
Reviewers have made various diverse comparisons ranging from Neil Young, The Beatles, Turin Breaks, Simon & Garfunkel and Crowded House although one must acknowledge these comparisons they are eclipsed by our distinctive sound.
"An acoustic songwriting partnership producing an intimate and emotional catalogue’’.

“classical influences…being executed with originality and enthusiasm. Great harmonies tooâ€.
The Virtually Acoustic Club
"Could this be a throwback to the innocent rock ballads crafted with care in the 1970s by supergroups like Yes, Emerson Lake & Palmer, Genesis and Jethro Tull? Soft-as-honey vocals turn into a more assertive tone as the song floats on. We like the sound of innocence combined with the eerily modern sounds and whipped-until-thick Tinlin harmonies." Lemonrock.com review
"You don't often get vocal harmonies, great acoustic dynamics and wit all in one package - but Tinlin have done it! Reminscent of early 10cc's love of fun, and cheeky irreverence, this track shows that you don't need to have a vengeful ex-girlfriend or an unfulfilled craving to fly in the sky to get all heated up and emotional."
