Upside Down At The Bottom Of The World - "The first seven tracks of this CD were commissioned by ABC Radio National to celebrate the Centenary of Federation. The last five tracks were written for a show called "The Enormous Club" by Melbourne theatre company, Born In A Taxi. The CD divides roughly into two halves. Tracks 1-6 include some more boisterous tunes, good for doing the housework to. If you want some late night chill out music, you might want to start at track 7 and play to the end."
