Grimes

Grimes is the multimedia project of Canadian artist Claire Boucher. She is best known for her work as a producer, singer and songwriter, although 'Grimes' also encompasses her work as a director, painter and writer. In 2013 Grimes was named the Webby's artist of the year and was also awarded a Juno for Electronic album of the year for her third record, Visions. She is currently recording her fourth album.

Jagwar Ma

Jagwar Ma is a musical project, est. Nov 2011 by Jono Ma and Gabriel Winterfield.

It all starts with the single "Come Save Me". A celebration of love and loss, lifted by human harmonies only to be sliced apart by the sharp contemporary programming of the song acting as dagger to the tale. This juxtaposition of voice and electronics being a signature of Jagwar Ma.

Their collaboration started in 2010 at a performance by FLRL, the Sydney based kraut- experiment that was "a band without members" and a stage of revolving musicians. Their musical history already well known to each other at the time, Jono from the band Lost Valentinos and Gabriel from Ghostwood.

Those shared stages at FLRL shows gave way to studio jams and home recordings, radio frequency manipulation, TR808 patterns, MPCs loops, vintage amps and a treasured 7 inch collection. Jagwar found a soul in and amongst all that electricity. Described as sounding like J- Dilla playing Primal Scream covering the Beatles.

In Australia "Come Save Me" has been embraced by Triple J who spun it to the #1 most played spot on the station. In the UK it was released through a new 7's label started by two A&Rs from the legendary XL Records. In the US the song finds high rotation on airwaves of the lauded KCRW and the bands signs with the Windish Agency.

Currently the band is ensconced in a castle in France bouncing beats through the dungeons, singing through its hallowed hallways and breathing life into their debut album for the summer of 2012. The first ever festival appearance in Australia for Jagwar Ma will be the 2013 Big Day Out!
