About Me


"Falling in Autumn wowed the crowd at Article Thirty-Nine with their hauntingly beautiful melodies and heartfelt lyrics, captivating the audience from the moment they took the stage.
Falling in Autumn works; together they are dynamic and captivating – the vocals, guitars and accompaniment blend smoothly in melodious harmonies. Carissa, or otherwise known as 'Ciss' (like the act of love of the same name) unquestionably has the voice of an angel, and Simon certainly has the personality to match it.
Another great attribute of Falling in Autumn was their open and friendly interaction with the crowd, which brought a fantastic feeling of community to the concert. Being an all ages gig, the audience at Article Thirty-Nine spanned a very large age range, yet Falling in Autumn bridged this gap with ease, appealing to both young and old with their honest, warm songs.”

------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------
Falling in Autumn is a Sydney-based group which revolves around the cathartic folk songs of Carissa Lehmann and Simon Williams.
Meeting through a mutual friend, the group’s dual songwriters found in each other a musical partner in whom to confide their acoustic confessions.
The pair have spent the past year quietly writing on a backbone of ‘love, loss and the unknown’, honing their sound and the songs which would become their recently self-released Tree EP.
Along their journey, they attracted the amazingly talented Jo Brooke - a beautiful, articulate cellist and vocalist; and Aussie pro bodyboarder Ewan Donnachie on percussion.
Falling in Autumn have crafted a lush, ambient sound; spawned from both a love of classic folk artists as well as their respective surroundings in the Blue Mountains and Northern Beaches. They have drawn comparisons with acts such as George and Angus & Julia Stone and continue to convert new fans with their warm, honest songwriting.
2009 is set to be a big year for the group as they expand their horizons interstate and plan to write and record their next release.
