Praise for Vol 1:
We are crazy about this album...For a record that feels like it understands you more than you even understand yourself, check out The Man From Atlantis’ first of what I hope will be many volumes."
Record Crates United, July 2021
"This enigmatic Melbourne-based musician takes a freaky, free-folk approach to the American Primitive Guitar genre exemplified by John Fahey, employing acoustic fingerpicking alongside slide, distortion and mumbled yet melodic vocals...Volume 1 is a tantalising introduction to this Man’s evocative, undersea kingdom.”
Ben Graham
