Tinpan Orange have been quietly spinning their alluring web of gypsy-infused acoustic longing for five years, since the intoxicating sound of Alex Burkoy's violin woke a brother and sister sharing a tent at the Woodford Folk Festival one New Year's Eve.

Emily Lubitz had been dancing her burnished silver voice around her brother Jesse's nylon guitar strings for longer than either of them can say. Their old world cadences and passions stemmed from a family where music was as much about devotion as celebration. Alex's Ukrainian heritage made for a seamless union.

Death, Love and Buildings (2007) was an album of rich melodies and graceful atmosphere that had Renee Geyer paying her respects. From small festival stages to world-class jazz clubs, Tinpan Orange became a smouldering secret that gently transformed all in its path.

Their new album, The Bottom of the Lake is the fulfilment of that promise. It was produced by Harry Angus (The Cat Empire, Jackson Jackson), whose extraordinary skills as a multi-instrumentalist and arranger make him the de facto fourth member of a band scaling a peak of self-realisation.

'From the minute that Tinpan takes the stage one is struck by the synergy of something so gentle yet powerful. The partnership of jesse, emily and alex is a formidable knock out combination. They all know when to let it breathe or drive it home. The web they weave instantly catches you and you are happy to be their captive.' - John Butler

'If my voice had a baby it would be hers.' - Renee Geyer
