Alt-folk band Grand Baxter are set to release their long-awaited EP Silverline in February, celebrating with a full-band gig at The Catfish in Fitzroy, with incredible folk singer-songwriter Flora, and beautiful trad folk duo Corn Nut Creek in support.
A long time in the making, Silverline is a statement of intent for Grand Baxter. With seven tracks that sway from sunny to sorrowful, the EP is a collection of songs that, in their own ways, talk about hope. With bombastic electric guitars, beautiful strings and delicate harmonies, masterfully produced by Dylan Knur and mixed by Zac Barter, Silverline gives listeners an exciting taste of what Grand Baxter will present in future.
A band of long-time collaborators Ben Langdon (songwriter, acoustic guitar), Dylan Knur (violin/mandolin) and Jack Wieseler (electric guitar), Maddison Carter (drums) and Isaac Gunno (bass), Grand Baxter has a chemistry and charisma bigger than the sum of its parts, best described as βa bold hamper of honesty, musicality and folk charm.β
~Corn Nut Creek~
Corn Nut Creek are storytellers with moving songs that weave traditions of Appalachian music with a unique chamber-folk style. With lush harmonies, intricate clawhammer banjo playing and lilting fiddle, their songs capture the significance of sisterhood and deep connections with the natural world. Corn Nut Creek was nominated for the Australian Folk Music Awards in two categories in 2024. Their album βHearts in Bloomβ was in the Australian Metro AMRAP Top Ten Charts for two consecutive weeks and was featured in Country Queer (US), The Alternate Root (US) as well as landing a place as a semifinalist in the Unsigned Only Music Competition (US). They are working on a new album, expected to be released in late 2025.
~Flora~
Flora emerges in the alt-folk scene as a beacon of optimism and healing, intricately touching on themes of mental health and anti-capitalist ideologies in a uniquely introspective way. Floraβs songs form a true representation of recovery and healing. Flora masterfully blends indie folk with the soulful tones of alt-country, creating a sound that is uniquely their own.
