Jared Underwood (drummer, composer, producer) and Flutter Lyon (performer, vocalist, visual artist) formed a new collaborative musical duo in late 2009.

The duo began experimenting in a recording studio with a pop song writing focus but soon discovered that the style of music they were most excited about creating was that of a more improvised and spontaneous nature. After many hours of jamming and experimentation they arrived at a sound and aesthetic they are happy to present in a live setting.

In a performance you are likely to hear and see Flutter set-up looped vocals and guitar riffs with multiple loop pedals all the while creating her lyrics on the fly. Jared rhythmically reacts to the organic loops playing his sculptural drum kit using experimental techniques.

The type of music created is likely to feature extremes in dynamics and emotion. From fragile whispered reversed vocals and haunting turkish bells to hair razing primal vocal screams and hypnotic angular percussive rhythms. They are hell bent on exploring new sounds and creating adventurous musical journeys for the listener to experience within the willingly chosen limitations of voice, guitar and drums.

They performed a live improvised set for cutting edge fashion designer Konstantina Mittas at 2010 Rosemount Australian Fashion Week as well as being invited to perform at the prestigious Sherman Gallery in Sydney.

Focaleland have now completed work on their soon to be released studio improvised album recorded at Studio 301 and mixed by Richie Belkner (PVT, Bertie Blackman, Triosk).

Both Jared and Flutter have individually worked across multiple audio and visual projects prior to coming together as Focaleland. You can enjoy the view here:
