Event information

South London pysch dub improvisational collective Thee High Trees come together with Australian experimental/indie/folk/noir musician Michael Plater and fellow Australian songwriter Tim Williams for a night of original indie folk and psychedelic music.

Thee High Trees
The immense clock ticking infinately. The spheres circling slowly around. Knowledge of the stars, the earth and the entire universe. Thee High Trees seek inspiration and elevation through their sometimes indescribable brilliance of improvised psychedelic, dub rock. At times majestic, quietly hypnotic creating a sense of intimacy; other times building huge swathes of surprise and crescendos.
Thee day. Thee night. The fold of time in between.
The spirited drums of Jon, the steady bass pulse of samples of Jason layered with Jim's textural, melodic, cascading guitars and digital adventures into the underworld are complete with the majestic vocals, percussion and conceptual performances of fine artist Gianinna. Thee High Trees launched their debut album, House of Rapture earlier this year with Clean Sheets zine remarking it's “Bewitching and enchanting throughout…”

Michael Plater
Michael Plater is an Australian experimental/indie/folk/noir musician, who currently divides his time between Australia and the U.K. He has played all over the world, including performances at such festivals as Dark Mofo (Tasmania) and Leigh Folk Festival (England), and he has toured extensively throughout Europe. His music has been released on such U.K. labels as Cruel Nature Records, Reverb Worship, Fenny Compton, Woodford Halse, Dub Cthonic, and Hypostatic Union. His 2023 album, "Ghost Music", was highly acclaimed, and was voted as the 4th best album of the year in U.K. music publication Sun 13. He also plays in the “Greek psych folk” collective The Taps of the Holy Trinity (who recently released their lauded debut album “Customs & Rituals” on Fenny Compton), the Greek/Italian/Australian collaboration The Right Hand Is Doomed to Blacken, and the “horror soundscapes” project The Northern Lighthouse Board.
“Like a way more ritualistic and psychedelic take on his countrymen Nick Cave or Go-Betweens…brilliant.” (Two Foot Left Radio, Sheffield, U.K)

Tim Williams
Tim Williams is an acclaimed veteran of the Australian music scene, having been the principal songwriter and front person for Death Valley PTA, Colourwheel, Goldentone, The Low-Fi Cowboys, Tender Fall, and now The Endless Winter. His work is an enticing blend of melodic guitar pop with a nod towards alternative country and indie-folk. Music critics suggest he performs “heartfelt songs that deal with emotional loss, broken relationships and yearning”. He creates “a mood that is sensitive, intense and graceful”. Tim has played at major music festivals including The Big Day Out, The Adelaide Fringe, and The Harvest Festival and has supported such legendary acts as Bjork, The Stone Roses, The Go-Betweens, The Church, Ed Kuepper, and Robert Forster over the course of his career. The debut album from “Tim Williams and the Endless Winter”, Dark Sky Reserve, is out now.
