comps and green hills and stuff...

Making an album is busy work! Our artwork is underway with Belinda Suzette and we are soon to send off the album to be made!
This morning we drove out to the misty hills outside Melbourne town to record Anna Branford's special request of Wild Mountain Thyme. We're editing now!



Other BIG news: we need your votes! We have entered Clare Bowditch's Winter Secrets Tour competition because we really want to get to sing with her on stage! The entry with the most votes wins that opportunity (plus $1000!).
We did a cover of her song "I Thought You Were God" in the local dog park!

Please go here to vote or even here for an even more direct route!! It looks like the competition is only for Facebookers.
(scroll down the pink column on the grey side bar to find our entry).
There's some tough competition! It ends  Friday 27th June. Wish us luck!

Here is the video (but remember to go to the website to vote!):

Oh, and finally, we recorded a bonus track as part of the Pozible rewards, "Girl in the Lighthouse", and it is now able to be listened to (and downloaded) on Bandcamp. Exciting! Hope you enjoy the song. It's a different style of songwriting for us.

house concert and album art!!

Yesterday we played a housewarming concert.  Nicki was one of our gold star Pozible supporters and she and her friends were such a fantastic warm audience and even sang harmonies to our rendition of "Wild Mountain Thyme"!
Thank you Nicki and company for a wonderful experience!

wintry photos

We trundled down to Black Rock beach at the wee hours this morning for a photo shoot with our fantastic friend Mara Ripani. In keeping with the artwork being done on this very wintry first day of June by Belinda Suzette (hooray!!), we wanted some sea themed photos to go on the back cover of the EP.  Here's the behind the scenes shots by our mum!
