Three Cane Whale always fill their recordings with splendid arrangements and Hibernacula is no exception. Recorded in Bristol’s prized St George’s venue by Rob Harbron, it is their most accomplished work to date and the freest representation of their sound thus far. Wonderful.
Glenn Kimpton and Paul Bradley (Three Cane Whale) share their thoughts on their first recording as ‘raga’merikana’ – spacious, reflective, modal, humble, raga-like, gently Americana-like and always improvised.
303 is intelligent, finely nuanced music full of fresh ideas along with signature Three Cane Whale sounds which really does invite and reward repeated listens. The little shades and dashes of sound throughout inject the whole album with a sense of life and nature.
