  The story ends in a community hall on Mount Wellington near Hobart where Tamas Wells’ recorded his long awaited new album, ‘Thirty People Away’. Written in Myanmar, recorded in Australia and then mixed by renowned Australian producer and previous collaborator Tim Whitten, the new album combines Wells’ ‘beautifully broken’ sense of melody with a mix of guitars, strings, organs and piano. The new single 'The Crime at Edmond Lake' (available on the recordings page) had over fifty thousand downloads in its first month.

The album received glowing reviews from the Australian music press along with national airplay and Wells toured the country five times over the following year.

Despite (or perhaps because of) its Burmese home recorded qualities; the album sold thousands of copies, was widely praised by the music press and Wells toured internationally to sold out venues and festivals in Japan, China, Singapore and Australia. ... more
