Perth artist Amber Fresh has been making music as Rabbit Island for over ten years, blending simple songs with experimental, improvised and lo-fi approaches to production and sound design.
Her latest record 'Songs For Kids' is a re-release of songs recorded direct to tape by Amber in a kitchen in Melbourne in 2013.
In this first episode of a new run of New Weird Australia podcasts, Stu Buchanan talks to Amber about the story behind the record, listening to lullabies in Kalgoorlie and mixing the magical with the meticulous.
