Monstera Deliciosa
In 2016, after 8 years of humbly dominating the Australian underground art, soul and jazz scene (with 'mutant-soul/croon punk' cult group Laneous & The Family Yah, reggae band Kooii and improv-jazz-beat trio, Vulture Street Tape Gang) Mitchell relocated to Melbourne - a move that would instigate and inspire the long-awaited debut solo Laneous record that fans and peers had been craving for nearly a decade. Excited to create new music with an artist they'd previously referenced as an inspiration, Paul Bender and Simon Mavin (Hiatus Kaiyote) came on board swiftly, joined by Hudson Whitlock (Cactus Channel) on drums and Donny Stewart (Jazz Party) on vibraphone and flugelhorn - a key element in bringing Mitchell's vision of an exotica/soul infused album to life. In classic Laneous fashion, the musical references for the record run deep, winding through an eclectic array of artists from Martin Denny, Burt Bacharach and The Beach Boys to Shuggie Otis, Wild Cookie and Wu-Tang.
