Ever wondered where Galileo was recorded? Or what it was like to be in the room when they put all these songs down on record?
In 2004 there were no camera phones, and no footage was taken at the studio.
But, in 2018 as we prepared to re-release Since Kyabram and take the music out on the road in celebration, it was decided to film a rehearsal. Most of the original line up of musicians were available but hadn't played the music together in almost 14 years. While considering locations we were surprised and excited to learn that the little stone cottage in which we originally made the record had been empty for some time and might be available to us. A further inquiry revealed it had been bought recently by a young couple who had received the keys but hadn't yet moved their furniture in.
We asked if they wouldn’t mind us playing a few songs in their new home. They very kindly obliged, and we got to soak up the space of this little house one more time.
This is a short film of that rehearsal, the reunion, and some old friends reminiscing through the magic of music and a wonderful place.
