25 tunes for toy piano and other instruments (strings, percussion, accordion, saw, banjo, and more), packaged in a colorful, 32-page picture-book about a lost bunny. An hour of music that frequently mixes styles and moods; sometimes intoxicated and hyperactive, at other times quite sinister. Biography: Twink is the music of toy pianist Mike Langlie, a Boston-based musician and artist. Before Twink, Mike played keyboards in gothic and electronic bands. He became inspired by a thrift store toy piano when his sequencers went on the fritz, and soon ditched the synths for tiny instruments.
