playshop (2018)
“throughout this week of playshop we intend to learn, fail, listen, experiment, play, grow, work, make and share in lots of music together as a group alongside the friends, collaborators and mentors who will be joining us along the way. having a space (the fact it is a large, sunlit warehouse over looking the harbour is a bonus), allows us to create a temporary sonic home that we can open up to our noisy neighbours for intentional and exploratory music making.”

“rain on the roof of a large, resonant building is a sonic feast. tuesday’s rain on the roof of legs on the wall in lilyfield bordered on auditory overload! but such is the energy of a residency that a deluge of rain seemed to be exactly what we needed to get the creative juices flowing. ”
“by now the darkness was complete, any final traces of light long gone on the year’s shortest day. time for pizza, more musical brainstorming and then a nighttime jam in honour of the winter solstice. with plenty of tea to fight the cold and a few sneaky candles for atmosphere, music and hilarity gave a glow of warmth that no heater could replicate. ”

“i had no idea what to expect. ...having this time to really experiment without the pressure of a performance or recording project gave me the freedom to enjoy sound again.”
