Vanilau, a multi-instrumentalist with a smooth, velveteen voice, teamed with Maxwell and Louis Baker, for a series of live shows. Says Maxwell, “We wanted to collaborate with a focus on vocal harmony, reminiscent of Crosby, Stills & Nash but with contemporary elements and original songs from three Antipodean minstrels”.
