New blends. - New fusions.
Starting off as just a
recording project, Whimwise quickly took on a life of its own and
blossomed into a colourful collective of artists whose combined influences
are creating a completely new blend of ingredients drawing on psychedelic
, celtic , world , ambient , electronic and orchestral rock fusion
elements .
They are currently taking their new sound
to stages all around the country.
