To celebrate 25 years since coining the name ollo - and 21 years sinece the debut album 'Sleeper' – I'll be showing photography and images that went into the artwork for a selection of ollo releases, plus some new works derived from video stills. All proceeds from the sale of these works will go to Motor Neurone Disease Research Australia (MNDRA).
It's twenty years since "Sleeper" and, to mark the occasion, we've released a live recording we found from that time. You can get it free now from our Bandcamp
ollo side project The Nethered is no out in the world, look for The Nethered Lost Songs on your favourite platform. Album launch is at Factory Theatre Fusebox, Marrickville, 8pm November 24
A new ollo album is well underway. But before that, we present The Nethered and the upcoming album 'Lost Songs'. This is a project that felt too different to ollo, and will probably only ever be this one album. Already available on all platforms and Bandcamp is the first single, "The Long Goodbye" which Backseat Mafia called a 'refreshing breeze of languid joy' and compared to Burt Bacharach and Jarvis Cocker. This first single was co-written by our friend Liz Martin, who also plays guitar and some of the keyboards.
I know it's been a long long time but this brings hope for new music from the ollo stable... new notes are being recorded. Whether the new stuff will be called ollo is another matter, I'll see how it sounds. Also - there will be something live in 2017...
Join us for more analogue hijinks, Wednesday February 25 at Water Rats, 328 Gray;s Inn Road Kings Cross, WC1X 8BZ
