One of this country’s most fascinating yet underrated musical icons Pikelet is back with a brand new, mind warping album-length recording Tronc.
A follow on from 2013’s psych exploration Calluses and 2010’s Australian Music Prize-shortlisted effort Stem, the constantly evolving Pikelet (a project centered around multi-instrumentalist and social activist Evelyn Morris) has managed to produce something both familiar and genre defying in Tronc, cementing her position as one of the most adventurous and compelling voices in Australian music.
After the success of full-band LPs Calluses (2013) and Stem (2010), Tronc is a return to the super intimate solo format of early Pikelet recordings, with each of the tape’s eight songs recorded and performed by Evelyn at home.
Tronc is out via cassette and digital by Chapter Music on Friday May 6. Pre-orders are up now via the Chapter webstore or Bandcamp
