Our new album The Bulletin Debate is out now check-out it on
bandcamp, Luke Moller and I and lots of cockatoos recorded it under a tree on Banjo Patersons childhood farm Illalong NSW in an afternoon. Thanks to all involved it is a very special project.
I found these poems in an old book and felt they helped me think about my connectionto the bush. I felt they warranted exploration so I tried singing them. It was a pleasure to record the songs under a tree on a hotsummer afternoon on Banjo’s childhood farm withmy mate Luke Moller. It was a very unfussy one take recording affair, just us two playing music with lots of cockatoos, flies, and farm dogs by the creek Banjo played in as a kid.
