Biography
Sydney, Australia (2000 – present)
1. Seaworthy, a three-piece collectivefrom Sydney, Australia that primarily revolves around core member Cameron Webb as well as Sam Shinazzi and Greg Bird, was formed in early 2000 to explore melodic and experimental approaches to the construction (and unravelling) of minimalist soundscapes from looped guitar, warm drones, piano, electronics and field recordings.
The compositions often blur the lines of conventional categorisation with elements traditionally considered part of “indie” or “post” rock blended with processed musical and field recordings usually associated with electronic artists. Instruments and samples are often looped through amps and effects pedals, giving the sound an organic feel. Avoiding the muscular approach of loud/soft dynamics, Seaworthy concentrate on subtle shifts in melody, tone and texture to convey a sense of time and place.
Seaworthy signed to 12K in 2006 for the release of Map in Hand and has subsequently released three additional albums including Live in Melbourne with Solo Andata, 2009’s 1897 and in 2010 a collaboration, Two Lakes, with Matt Rosner.
Webb has a PhD in environmental science and specialises in field based ecological research where much of his time is spent in isolated wetland environments.

^_^ I visited a WWII-era bunker in Oregon with really spooky and pleasant reverberations. Oh! You should all listen to Pauline Oliveros' Deep Listening band recordings!
