For a few years now, Allanah Stewart have been playing music together, mostly privately, with occasional live excursions (only once as a duo, and another time with Michael McNab). Our debut release YARROW is out now. There is a limited run of 30 cassettes, cradled in gorgeous packaging that has been handmade by Allanah (handsewn pouches with pressed botanicals encased inside). Now, more than half of these are already gone in pre-orders, so if you’d like one please don’t hesitate. We will also keep a handful aside for our launch gig next week (see below). Or you can purchase the digital version on Bandcamp.
And next Thursday (7 August 2025), we launch YARROW at Dimensions of Incomprehensibilities (at Merri Creek Tavern, 113 High St, Northcote). Also playing is Jessica Aszodi/Lizzy Welsh, and Tom Kazas.
Allanah Stewart and I launch our debut cassette “Yarrow” at Dimensions of Incomprehensibilities, Thursday 7 August 2025 at the Merri Creek Tavern.
Copies of the limited edition of 30 cassettes are going fast. You can order online, and we will hold a handful over for the night. Digital also available.
Clinton Green & Allanah Stewart “Yarrow” digital cassette – PRE-ORDER now.
Murky, swirling, whirring and organic, Clinton Green & Allanah Stewart indulge in jams where listening is deep, and the music sifts through your fingers like sand.
Baby blue/pink hand-labelled cassette, housed in a hand-made pouch, with dried botanicals sewn into each one by Allanah. Each object is a unique, beautiful object, limited an edition of 30 hand-numbered copies.
A launch gig is planed for Thursday 7 August at Merri Creek Tavern in Melbourne, stay tuned for details.
