The Shining Tongues
The Shining Tongues is the songwriting vehicle of Daniel Knowler (previously of The Infinite Three). The Shining Tongues' music explores the personal, political and spiritual through a coagulation of influences from folk, drone, pop music, psychedelia, gothic and art-rock.
The debut album, 'Milk Of God', was recorded with contributions from Orlando Harrison (of Alabama 3), Robin Jax (of RobinPlaysChords), Andrea Kerr (of Living With Eating Disorders), Maria Vellanz (of Bent Husbands) and other guests. It was described by Echoes & Dust as "A lush, melodic work of intensity, love, noir-pop, gothic folk, drone and more."
In 2024, the current live line-up of Daniel Knowler assisted by bassist Sam Mclaughlin, guitarist Robin Jax and drummer Willie Nash, released the second album, 'This Body Of Mine Will Disintegrate'
