about

This is a live recording of the original Gloomchasers line up when the band was based in Melbourne. Paul Rigby on the banjo/mandolin, Ben Mason on the electric bass, Lachlan Franklin on the drums/acoustic guitar, Nic Dalton on lead vocals/acoustic guitar/mandolin and Lucy Lehmann on gutstring guitar. Everyone sang harmonies. Someone plays the glockenspiel on "Somewhere Else" and Paul plays the harmonica on "There She Is".

Recorded at the Empress Hotel, North Fitzroy on 7th October 2005 at a La Huva launch on a Tascam 244. Mixed at Glebe Studios (the old ATA Studio) on Glebe Point Road that Col Joye owned. He popped in and we had a friendly chat about mandolins. I have forgotten who the mix engineer was. My apologies. Not sure who took the cover photo, but thanks!

All songs by N. Dalton/L. Lehmann except 3, 11 N. Dalton, 6 T. Morgan/N. Dalton, 1, 5, 10 L. Lehmann, 13 G. Macainsh
