Today, Vermont-based jam quartet Twiddle debuted their latest single “Distance Makes the Heart.” The folk-inspired sauntering tune marks the band’s second release in recent months after their studio return – “The Devil” featuring John Popper.

“Distance Makes the Heart” was written during the early months f the pandemic and features the dobro stylings of Anders Beck, produced by Clint Bierman and recorded by Roger Stauss and Samuel Johnson at Sugarworks Soundhouse in Waitsfield, Vt.

“I wrote ‘Distance Makes The Heart’ during the beginning of the pandemic,” said singer/lead guitarist Mihali Savoulidis in a press release. “The song is about finding yourself in an unfamiliar way of life, isolated from the ones you love. It reflects upon how much better things are when we’re all together.” 

Beck went on to add, “I really enjoyed getting to join the guys on this track! The fact that this song is such an ear-worm made it a blast to jam on.“

The track was released with a lyric video featuring a clip show highlighting Twiddle’s time on the road. Additionally, the band will embark on a spring tour on April 1, featuring more than two dozen shows and festival appearances throughout the country. They feature support from Andy Frasco, Strange Machines, Dogs In A Pile, and Threesound on select dates.
