We just returned from eight days in a cosy little shack in the verdant foothills of Tasmania’s Mt Wellington, recording the soundtrack to falling snowflakes, the soup-pot bubbling away on a woodfire stove, and Bear the aging German shepherd yawning his disapproval at yet another bungled guitar take! Somehow, thanks to the mystical wizardry of our punctilious producer (and shack curator) Chris Townend we’ve managed to return to Melbourne with more than a dozen new songs — our new album First Frost... hope you like it!
