ABOUT CEILING ROSE:

The Orbweavers delve into local urban history and deliver new material drawn from Melbourne’s built and natural environments. New single Ceiling Rose is a song about secrets and dreams, waking in the night, drifting between states of consciousness. A symbol of secrecy and confidentiality since ancient times, ceiling roses are an enduring decorative feature in Australian interior architecture, and form the central motif of this richly orchestrated single, constructed around nocturnal vocals and lush detail.

Since releasing Loom (Mistletone Records, 2012), The Orbweavers have been warming hearts and selling out shows with evocative songs and stories of creeks & quarries (Merri), the yearnings of a bridled greyhound (You Can Run – Fern’s Theme), and  Melbourne’s historic sewerage pumping station (Spotswood), while continuing work on their forthcoming third album.

The Orbweavers are Marita Dyson on vocals, guitar and violin, Stuart Flanagan on vocals and guitar, Daniel Aulsebrook on trumpet, Paddy Mann (Grand Salvo) on bass, Jen Sholakis (Jen Cloher, Sailor Days) on drums and Stuart Lindsay on koto and organ.
