Desert Twang is a music label, art and creative agency rooted in the raw, sun-baked soul of the Australian Outback.

Blending music, art, fashion, and storytelling, channelling the mystique of the desert, where twangy guitars echo off desert canyons.

I'm happy to have found this track, as it was never really completed or mixed down, but it's a beautiful memory of working with the Warlpiri guitar maestro and great friend, Kumanjayi Japananga Brown.

Welcome to The Mondulkiri Space Project - a place where sound merges fuzz box psychedelic rock with ancient tribal rhythms, groovy Isan Phin lute, stoner rock riffs, and sacred bronze gongs, amplifying endangered Bunong culture through what The Wire called "a psychedelic dialogue between past and future."

Beautiful woodblock prints made for Desert Twang! by the artists and printmakers of Fish Island Community Arts Centre, Cambodia. From coastal Cambodia to the desert lands... It's a Twang Thang!

Desert Twang! Songwriter sessions at the Old Courthouse, here in Mparntwe, Alice Springs, are proving to be a great thing to do. But it's made so much more profound and meaningful when someone like Ned Jampijinpa Hargraves comes in and sings with all the culture, sorrow, spirit and knowledge that he brings and shares with us - gravitas. This little snippet is just a sketch of things we're working on. It's hauntingly beautiful while eerily profound considering we're sitting in the middle of an old courthouse, and recording music to bring to attention the plight of First Nations Australians - the most incarcerated people in the world.

It's a Twang Thang!
"Lee Hazlewood’s ghost jamming with Slim Dusty in a Coober Pedy drive-in. The Shadows meet Hunter S. Thompson in a khaki safari suit. Paris Texas vibes with a Fender Jaguar twangin’ reverb-soaked Ry Cooder riffs off the walls of Uluru"
