Since their early days as Australian folk darlings, brother-and-sister duo Tinpan Orange has evolved into a dizzyingly original musical force.

Still evident is the lush song craft and lyrical depth for which they are renowned, but the landscape in which the songs are set has shifted.

Six-foot front woman Emily Lubitz twirls her flaming red hair out across a complex and original musical creation, in which virtuoso instrumental performances and pulsating rhythms merge to form a wholly unique sound.

Imagine Edith Piaf in the body of Mrs Jessica Rabbit, wandering through a landscape of suburban fairy tales and electric static clouds.

Guitarist Jesse Lubitz thumps up dust from the floor of the stage, the drums rumble and the organ whirrs and up over the top of everything floats the prodigal Alex Burkoy’s achingly sad violin.

Catch Tinpan Orange at the Nannup Music Festival on Sunday night, March 4, at the Nannup Amphitheatre.
