Pulsating with vibrant unity, colour has become the nexus in my current collection of contemporary water colour paintings. Much like the Fauves, I have deliberately utilised pure, complimentary colours to unify my works. My works are an exploration of colour and movement. Karli Dore.

On the wave of a successful 25-show tour from Broome to Margaret River last Spring, artist and musician Eli Wolfe is back on the road visiting remote and rural communities across Australia.

The new album is based on Eli‟s well-timbered vocal melodies and hypnotic acoustic sound. Traditional drums, bass and electric guitars were deliberately not used in his latest album, instead Eli had fun discovering percussive sounds and textures from the likes of a washing machine, a marching drum and from playing cement rendered walls, with a foot-stomp also called upon to help with rhythm duties.

Adding to Eli‟s detailed sound is double bass, cello, piano and an old organ which doubled as a bass by using its clunky foot pedals. With a brand new single, an upcoming album and a stack of shows, the Maton-endorsed guitarist has quite a journey ahead of him.

You can catch Eli Wolfe at a live show where you can pick up a special pre-release version of the single and album and enjoy some inspired music!

The guys in the rhythm section are Ian Stone on bass and Rowan Parekh on drums, both offering energy and dynamism in abundance. Ken Williford adds lots of class on lead guitar. On slide, harp and melodica Blew Drew does his thing. Vocals and rhythm guitar are performed by Dilip Parekh, an accomplished songwriter with a growing reputation around Fremantle.

The last 3 years have been a whirlwind for brother and sister duo, Angus & Julia Stone.  Their debut album ‘A Book Like This’ released in 2007 glided easily into the hearts of Australians where it debuted top 10 on the national ARIA album chart and maintained a spot in the top 100 for over a year. In 2008 it earned the brother and sister duo 6 ARIA award nominations and was certified platinum, selling in excess of 80,000 copies.

Travelling has been an integral part of the Stone’s musical story so it’s not surprising they opted to record their new album “Down The Way” in a number of diverse locations around the globe; an old sawmill on the river banks of Fowey in Cornwall, a studio in Brooklyn, a water tank in Coolangatta, their second home - London - and Queens in New York.

“Down The Way” marks their debut as producers, taking full control of their sound without losing the spirit of what made the first record so special.  There has been a subtle shift of gear, represented by a growing confidence in their abilities as artists and the music follows suit as it flows easily through sparse and rich textured arrangements without losing any of its etherealness and charm.

“Down The Way” is thirteen lovingly crafted songs reflecting a myriad of emotions and another graceful step on a remarkable musical journey for Angus & Julia Stone.
