Cheers Indonesia
That’s a wrap on this Indonesia mini-tour. Thank you to everyone who came to one of our 3 shows! Infinite gratitude to everyone at British Council ID, Archipelago Festival, Greenpeace Indonesia, SOS Forests, Music for Brighter Day and Rumah Sanur for making this all happen, it was a privilege to have had the opportunity.
Cheers to Josh Taffel for filling in on drums, plus to Teia Fregona on guitars and synths always. Special shout out to our hero Adrian Wail for looking after us so diligently and to Simon, Abbey and Nadhira for also being awesome.
Picture below is from my Wallacea Week show at the National Library for Greenpeace and SOS Forests - PLEASE check out the excellent work both are doing to preserve the natural sounds of Indonesia’s rainforests, which we are in constant danger of losing if massive industry is not kept in check.
Thank you Jakarta!
