Electric Tapestry Electric Tapestry
Created out of a desire to combine the atmospherics of post rock with the immediacy and sensibilities of pop, Electric Tapestry weave together a wide range of elements from a variety of genres to achieve a unique sound.

Three very different guitar players founded the band out of frustration with their previous musical groups, and decided to fully utilise their numerous effects pedals to create rhythmic noises, echoing harmonies and sonic washes to fill their soundscape. Riding atop this wave of sound can be heard familiar melodies from music originating from disparate styles across the decades of rock.

The shimmering Dunedin jangle sound is often utilised, in combination with occasional funk rhythms. Meanwhile, vocal lines that are reminiscent of South African pop can be heard from either of the two vocalists, only to be interrupted by layers of warm fuzz, crystalline blues lines à la David Gilmour, or a heavy metal lead guitar lead. The band is inspired by groups as diverse as The Beach Boys, Ladysmith Black Mambazo, King Crimson, Genesis, Van Halen, Radiohead; not to mention New Zealand bands such as Crowded House, The Chills and Straitjacket Fits.

EP Review: Li'l Chuck meets Drummie Dan at the Mansion on the Hill Li'l Chuck the One Man Skiffle Machine - EP Review: Li'l Chuck meets Drummie Dan at the Mansion on the Hill
07 Feb 2025 // by Peter K Malthus
Having released four solo albums over the course of the last decade or so, and in the wake of "a clash with his other band members", Li'l Chuck the One Man Skiffle Machine has joined forces with Dan Heatley (aka Drummie Dan, ex-Shane MacGowan and The Popes, and The Exploited) to produce an EP that allowed them both to nostalgically explore the Rock & Roll influences of their teenage years, and let their "heavier" sides off the chain. The result is nothing short of magnificent.
