No Mono (Deluxe Edition) (Vinyl)
Deluxe Edition!
Recorded at Pieater’s BellBird studio in Melbourne, the album came together over a three-year period, mostly in Melbourne, but pieces sketched all over. It was entirely written, recorded, produced and mixed by Tom Snowdon and Tom Iansek.
“Islands” brings the previously separated “Islands part 1” and “part 2” together in a whole state, and includes the previously unreleased track ‘Finally’, which helps close the “Islands” chapter.
“Islands” is the culmination of years of songwriting and performance, and draws from broad influences including Snowdon’s upbringing in the remote desert town of Alice Springs and his relationship to central Australia. It also oozes Tom Iansek’s boundary-pushing production.The duo of Tom Snowdon and Tom Iansek have done a lot in their two short years – released Islands part 1 (2018) and Islands part 2 (2019), toured Australia (including trips to the NT), and played The Sydney Opera House, Splendour In the Grass and A Festival Called Panama.
Part 1 and part 2 will now be united in a two-disc LP, with re-worked cover art by Iansek.
