Pangolin Band came together in 2002 in Melbourne, Australia. The band originally consisted of Paul Hughan (guitar), Barry Mason (drums), and Gerrit Thomson (bass). TRB features well-known Melbourne funk and soul singer Kylie Auldist (Brown Hornet, Bomba, Renee Geyer, Small Fish Deep Sea), and solo artist Wendy Rule. The basic tracks, cut mostly in one take without click tracks and with minimal editing, sound fresh and innovative. The results preserve some of the flexibility and spontaneity of jazz, without losing the strong song structures.
Pangolin Band's music is equal parts rawness and lushness, like a panorama of Australian summer sky seen through a bug-spattered windscreen on the lazy rush of a car trip to the beach. Serenity is a word not often associated with rock music, but it is readily apparent in the sound of the Pangolin Band. They swing from delicate to thunderous like the Smashing Pumpkins' good twin and have the luster and spaciousness of the Cocteau Twins and The Church, but with the rock and roll thud and jazzy clatter of the great power trios such as Cream and The Hendrix Experience. Overlying this is the influence of global grooves from bossa-nova to Afro-pop, and bubbling beneath it, showing through in the side slipping chord progressions, is a hint of the addictive sourness of Flamenco and Eastern European music. Throw in the iridescent chord voicing of Allan Holdsworth and Bill Connors, and a bit of distant Shoegazer thunder, and you have the complex mix that is Pangolin Band. Like the landscapes and sensations of the Australian summer that they evoke, Pangolin Band has a huge energy that can become trancelike. What you will hear may be many things, but one thing is certain, you will not be able to put your finger on the pulse of this band with just one listen
