Every human being is a single tone of diverse timbres and roots. When these tones come together in a harmonious symphony, everyone can find themselves on a benevolent wavelength, where everyone can find his place to feel comfortable in peaceful community.

Our new ep

TIMBREROOTS’ NEW EP “TAKE ME BACK” OUT NOVEMBER 20, 2026

The emotional paradox of nostalgia. A musical journey through memories, longing, and the art of living in the present.

​

Sometimes, we wish we could turn back time. Back to childhood, to carefree summer days, to moments when the world still seemed full of possibilities. But what makes these memories so special? And what if, in longing for yesterday, we forget to appreciate today?

​

With his new EP “Take Me Back”, set for release on November 20, 2026, Bene and his project Timbreroots explore exactly these questions.

​

Across six songs, he reflects on the small and big moments that shape our lives: the carefree spirit of childhood, the magic of unplanned moments, love, the comfort of nature, the longing for what has passed, and the fear of one day looking back on a life not fully lived.

​

Musically, this world of reflection unfolds through atmospheric indie folk, warm vocal harmonies, and richly textured arrangements. Acoustic instruments meet expansive, almost cinematic soundscapes, creating an atmosphere that feels both familiar and full of discovery.

​

Yet “Take Me Back” is much more than a nostalgic look into the past. The EP invites us to pause, cherish our memories, and recognize that the stories we will one day look back on are being written right now.

Born among the vineyards of South Tyrol, near the Dolomites, singer-songwriter and instrumentalist Bene (Benedikt Sanoll) has carved out his own distinctive space in the indie folk/ americana/ alternative pop-rock landscape with his project Timbreroots.

 

"I do this because I believe every person is like a single note with its own unique timbre and roots. When these notes come together in harmony, they create a sense of community where everyone can feel welcome and at ease, and simply enjoy life and love, forgetting the harsh realities of everyday life for just a moment."
- Bene, Timbreroots

 

This philosophy has always been the essence and driving force behind Bene's intimate lyrics. Drawing from his own experiences, his songs reflect on the beauty and struggles of everyday life while exploring the emotions that shape us. In the end, they remind us of what connects every human being, regardless of where we come from.

 

The project moves fluidly between solo performances, duo setups and full band arrangements, blending intricate fingerstyle guitar work, soaring vocal harmonies and atmospheric, cineamtic instrumentation into a sound that feels both intimate and epic. Thanks to these flexible line-ups, Timbreroots can create the right atmosphere for any stage or event, whether it's an unplugged acoustic show or a large open-air festival.

 

If Bene had to describe his music through a list of familiar ingredients, it would be:

  • Layered harmonies and choirs à la Mumford & Sons, The Fleet Foxes

  • The intimacy and live energy of The Lumineers and Kingfishr, Noah Kahan

  • The guitar work of Ben Howard and John Butler, especially in Bene's solo performances

  • The magical, atmospheric and cinematic depth of early Coldplay, Bon Iver, Bear’s Den

    All of this is combined with Timbreroots' own spirit: performing, sharing stories and feelings live on stage, and connecting with every kind-hearted human being.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT TIMBREROOTS

"Bene is exceptional at taking direction, vocally and on pronunciation. I've worked with plenty of established artists where that kind of thing took weeks. He just nails it on the second take."

Matt Lawrence, Grammy Award-winning producer

“I’ve rarely seen such a musical singer perform live, one who also has such excellent vocal control.”

Christian Wegscheider (professor at the Mozarteum University Salzburg)

“Timbreroots, [...] one of the most promising local bands of the present day. With their polyphonic vocals and the assemblage of a variety of different influences, they build a bridge between yesterday and today.”

"It's like playing it from a CD, only more spectacular!"
