Details:
Wyatt Moss-Wellington''s 2011 offering, Gen Y Irony Stole My Heart, is a cycle of 14 musically and thematically diverse songs featuring Hamish Stuart on drums, Ian Watson on violin, Abel Cross on double bass, David Nutting on tuba-wah, the vocal harmonies of Louise Nutting and Nina Stamell as well as Moss-Wellington''s usual virtuosic shenanigans.
Moss-Wellington is a progressive folk musician, an idiosyncratic vocalist and guitarist, a composer of humanistic narratives in songform and a swell bloke. Based in Sydney, Australia, travel across five continents has brought folk influences from all over the world into his songwriting. The borders of nationality are broken down in his work, and the characters in his songs reflect a rapidly changing world.
The Sydney Morning Herald’s John Shand said of Moss-Wellington’s 2009 debut, The Supermarket and the Turncoat, “Challenging preconceptions of song structure, guitar and vocal techniques, subject matter and stylistic homogeneity … the listener is bounced between satire and aching tendernes, power chords and delicate finger-picking - sometimes all within one line! Moss-Wellington makes most of his peers sound like they have never fully considered the breadth of options open to them. This is an auspicious debut.”
Moss-Wellington has been playing piano for as long as he can remember, guitar since 13 years of age, mandolin since someone handed him one on his 21st birthday and voice since he learned to scream at his sister and parents almost immediately upon disembarking the womb.
He grew up picking out Loudon Wainwright III, Richard Thompson and Nanci Griffith folk songs on his guitar before being exposed to avant-progressive and Canterbury scene music. He was never the same person. If anyone can get through to him, please let us know.
Moss-Wellington is also the artistic director of https://www.tradebit.com.
