Wilson Tanner return to dry land with Legends, a wine‑soaked agricultural fantasy recorded among the grapevines at Manon Farm in South Australia. Where their earlier works settled into the sun‑struck torpor of a suburban Perth backyard (69) or drifted off‑course on a riverboat on Port Phillip Bay (II), Legend trades salt air for vineyard sweat, the scrape of boots on dry earth, and workers’ radios humming with the summer test cricket season.

A vivid image of a working vineyard emerges—ducks, dogs, and plovers intrude; tractors and quads fly by; stainless steel gleams at the edges. Recorded entirely without mains power, the Manon demos overflow with farmyard ingenuity. Wind, brass, balalaika, balloon, pipe, and synth are coaxed into sound with wire, tape, and string.

A caricature of Australian viticulture, Legends is rich with the mythology and manure of natural wine. Swigging and belching in camaraderie, Wilson Tanner press their surroundings into something raw and unfiltered—letting bum notes, leftovers, and sediment linger in the bottle. A cornucopia of biodynamic sounds.
