Robbie Melville's Secret Trio

Robbie Melville's Secret Trio is the latest project from the guitarist and composer, winner of the Instrumental Category of the 2018 International Song Competition.
Featuring Sophie Dunn on violin/viola (Devil Goat Family String Band) and accordionist Phil McLeod (The Blue Grassy Knoll), the trio explores a juxtaposition of heavily structured arrangements with free spirited extemporisation, informed in equal measure by contemporary jazz and Norwegian folk, the sparse and playful writings of Richard Brautigan, the photography of Viktor Kolář, the film soundtracks of Mark Orton.
“While subtly evading expectations, Robbie Melville loads his music with a restrained melancholy conveying innocence rather than knowingness, the upshot being an unusual emotional ambiguity blending resignation and contentment.” John Shand
