Folk Rock, featuring Penny Davies (“one of the richest voices in Australian folk music...”), brilliant harmonies and Roger Ilott’s compelling acoustic guitar and Rickenbacker 12 string artistry.
Bio / Background
I took this new album, (the 100th in the Restless catalogue and the 16th by Davies and Ilott) on a recent trip I made to the outback. Listening to these beautiful songs on the dirt road which follows the Darling River between Pooncarie and Menindee gave me an added sense of connection: words, music and landscape, weaving their way through me like bright threads of meaning spun from the heart itself.
Penny Davies and Roger Ilott occupy a unique place in Australian music spanning the great divide between Folk and Country. They have reinvigorated the bush ballad, kept alive the protest song, and have celebrated all that it means to be Australian and citizens of the world, as the new millennia continues its dark unfolding, without a cork hat, lagerphone or phoney accent on the horizon.
Big Water is an important album. It breaks new ground just as their 1st album, 'Restless' did some twenty three years ago. Here are songs of place and identity and of heartfelt humanity.
