We Have Tigers : Inga Liljestrom and Michael Lira
Dark orchestral epic ballads, a salute to the great Ennio Morricone, a love of old western film soundtracks and traditional songs, welcome the debut album project by vocalist/ composer Inga Liljestrom and award winning film composer/ multi-instrumentalist Michael Lira (Darth Vegas, Vicious Hairy Mary). The album, entitled ‘We Have Tigers’ is a manifestation of the duo’s sparse yet cinematic interpretations of traditional and original compositions, set in the desert terrain of dust, heat and storms.

" ...the soundtrack for a freakshow on Mars watched by zombies in tuxedoes.."
Darth Vegas ‘Brainwashing For Dirty Minds’
from The Brag, May 2012 (4 stars)
Essentially it’s the soundtrack for a cult B-grade sci-fi/horror/porno film about an opium-addicted ghost falling in love with a nympho robot with four breasts, set against the backdrop of a war between a horde of vampire gypsies and surfloving ninjas from outer space." - REDBACKROCK CD review

Vicious Hairy Mary
"The Down Under’s most obscure secret is also their best kept. VHM found a virtuosic middle ground between the bizarre and the traditional, between the terrifying and the whimsical. Even if VHM hadn’t split, certainly no mainstream public in any culture would accept and idolize a band so bizarre, creepy and inaccessible; that’s often the case with artists ahead of their time. Unfortunately, VHM fans and curious listeners won’t be able to walk into Best Buy and grab a copy off the shelf. Even more frustrating, finding a copy of Orchestra Phantasma in your local used record depot or pawnshop will likely yield no results. But half of the joy surrounding such forgotten bands is the treasure hunt for said gems – to complement the brilliant, hair-raising music within this obscure product is the mystery of its whereabouts. The other half of the joy is sharing this lost recorded time with oblivious music fans. Only through word-of-mouth can we show our appreciation for VHM, and our appreciation for eclectic music as a whole."

Monsieur Camembert
With a vibrant, contemporary edge, triple ARIA Award winning group Monsieur Camembert has been described as eclectic, virtuosic, theatrical and irreverent. Fusing the wild rhythms of Eastern Europe with tango and Latin music, swing, jazz, klezmer, tarantella and French Musette, Monsieur Camembert’s shows have become synonymous with an atmosphere of celebration and spontaneity. This is gutsy, emotive and irresistibly danceable music, played with originality, virtuosity, sensuality and flair.
The most successful world music band in Australian music history, the core group has been performing for more than seven years and has gained a wide audience at a range of events, including national and international music festivals, concert halls, various performing arts and jazz venues, including the Sydney Opera House, The Basement and the Art Gallery of NSW and celebrity weddings. In 2000, they were a featured act at the Paralympic Games Opening Ceremony and were broadcast on ABC Radio National's live concert series: “Live On Stage” three times
