Caroline No

Australian Indie Pop Duo

Caroline No is a project built around the songs of Caroline Kennedy (guitar and vocals) of Plums / Deadstar fame, with Ian Wadley (Mad Nanna, Bird Blobs, St Helens) on drums, then guitar, then moving to bass a few gigs ago with the arrival of David McMillan (Dag) on drums. Other drummers include Nick Imfeld (Tyrannamen), Mladen Milinković (Lalić) and Paul Williams (Panel Of Judges) while Dion Nania (Free Time), Pat Ridgewell (Small World Experience) and Esther Edquist (Sweet Whirl) just some of the former bassplayers. Occasional keyboard player Helen Johnstone (Garbage and the Flowers) first appeared during the recording of what became the No Language cassette, which has just been rereleased on vinyl by Cincinnati label Students Of Decay. Caroline and Ian first worked together on Don’t Tell The Driver, the most recent LP from Mick Turner (Dirty 3) as well as his ‘big band’ assembled to promote it. Around this Mick started work producing a Caroline No album Swimmers, due for release later this year. Think Velvet Underground, Blake Babies, Young Marble Giants, American Spring…
