Meadow Argus

Meadow Argus is the new solo project from Australian fingerstyle guitarist, Jevan Cole.

Through Meadow Argus, Cole spreads his musical wings and expands his sonic palette to launch into outer space with tape echoes, e-bows, fuzz, synths and modulation wobbles galore, while retaining a reverential link to his established ties with the traditional folk balladry of Britain, Australia and beyond.

Combining the rhythmic clunk of English Morris dance with the spaced-out whimsy of rural psychedelia, Meadow Argus’ extended instrumental pieces, occasionally punctuated by brief lyrical interludes, come infused with a creeping unease reminiscent of pre-industrial mythic folk-lore.
