raspberry terrapin (Nipaluna), Cold Hands, Warm Heart, Linen

This October Nipaluna favourites raspberry terrapin are finally crossing the Bass Straight!

raspberry terrapin is a collective centred around blending ambient, dreamy soundscapes with folk-inspired songwriting. The band has a fluid lineup, and plays with a range of local musicians, and friends. Their music features intimate 3-part harmonies, accompanied by rich, dynamic guitar parts, and accompanying instrumentalists.

Joining them are friends Cold Hands Warm Heart! Bark. Branches. Stones. Clay. Cold Hands Warm Heart is a Narrm-based collective of musicians who seek to pay homage to nature by evoking it through experimental soundscapes. A fallen tree, teeming with life. The swell of a river, after rain. This is music that draws attention to deep time by inviting deep listening.

And the noisey 3 piece Linen, who vary between both improvised and singer-songwriter conventions, within the post-punk style, influenced primarily by Pj Harvey and the 80s darkness of the Cure.
