Details

Lisathe is a trio whose music unfolds with quiet intensity and focus. Born from a shared devotion to restraint and sonic storytelling, Lisathe’s sound unites jazz, blues, country, folk and ambient aesthetics to create immersive instrumental landscapes.

Drawing inspiration from the atmospheric worlds of Skúli Sverrisson, Daniel Lanois and Bill Frisell, the trio explore texture and melody through a deeply personal and patient lens — at once intimate and expansive, their performances evoke both vast landscapes and quiet interior worlds.

Clark, Thorpe and Thomas are all significant voices on the Australian music scene, each renowned for both their individual sound as well as their predilection for collaboration. They have each worked extensively across a breadth of genres including long-standing collaborations with artists as diverse as Lior, Ian Moss, Tim Freedman, Meg Mac, The Three Seas and more. In this context, their virtuosity is brought to the fore to build a music of subtle emotional power that unfolds gently and lingers long after the final note.
