Toolangi State Forest

A couple of photos taken while searching for the Leadbeater's Possum and watching the blood moonrise at Toolangi State Forest.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Panman!

What a glorious bloke.

Harmony - Carpetbombing

Harmony's second album is called Carpetbombing, and I am very proud to report that I have taken a bunch of photos that were used in the artwork within the glorious gate-fold sleeve and the front cover. Order it here.

Striborg performs at MONA

Tasmanian black metal artist Striborg doesn't play very often, however last weekend he treated us to a set entitled Purifying The River Of Tears, written in homage to the Derwent River to be played at MONA for the MONA FOMA festival. 

Emerging from behind the MONA building through the riverside fog, Sin Nanna (Striborg) and a string quartet played beside the Wim Delvoye Gothic Chapel where they performed for 30 minutes. It was fantastic.

Hobart Improv Collective at MONO FOMA

The Hobart Improv Collective played as a 6 piece at MOFO this year. It's a fluid line-up of some of Hobart's more interesting musos. 

Sun Ra Arkestra at MONA FOMA

Sun Ra Arkestra played twice this weekend in Hobart. Once on the main stage, and then a fantastic set the next night at the Faux Mo afterparty. Marshall Allen (below) often stole the show via his wild sax sounds.

Colin Stetson at MONA FOMA

Colin Stetson was a late withdrawal from last year's MOFO, but made it this year, however without his signature bass saxophone. It really didn't matter. Colin was able to blow minds with just his regular sax and a few strategically placed contact mics. Hypnotic, lush and at times hauntingly beautiful. When he's not playing with Arcade Fire, Bon Iver or Tom Waits, do yourself a favour and go and catch him play a solo set!
