The spontaneous flow of music takes the listener on a journey through a collection of aural landscapes, each featuring a unique combination of melody, rhythm and emotion. Each journey is separated by a solo didgeridoo interlude which acts as a narration of the following soundscape.

Craig Lauristen on Percussion & Harmonic Flute.

In fact Andrew met Stephan & Alistair creating ambiance Andrew’s brother’s wedding ceremony, immediately pulled out his Gilchrist Mandolin and the adventure was on. A week later they were in the Studio together on the Balanda Dancing project in Adelaide and then not too much later back in the studio to seed this recording into life!
I’m told it makes great soundtrack to bringing your house into ship shape 🙂
