Introducing Tornado Club, the new collaborative project from Elle Graham (Woodes) and Danny Harley (The Kite String Tangle).

Tornado Club began work in-person at the tail-end of 2019 before finishing remotely online, unearthing an ongoing collaboration through which they could explore a different side of their respective song-writing. Over a bed of pulsating beats and a dreamy blend of vocals, the hypnotic “Something Was Missing” is the first taste of music from the project comprised of two of Australia’s best.
Danny remarks “This has been one of the most natural periods of song-writing I’ve ever experienced. It was really cathartic and grounding to be writing music with Elle, without any expectations, during a time of personal volatility. In the end, it has created something really special which we’re both really excited to continue building upon”.
Elle adding “This music was never really created to be released or shared, it was just the two of us using song-writing as a way of working through something. I’m a massive fan of Danny’s production, writing and the world he creates around his music. Making this duo together has been an important and inspiring new chapter for me. I’m proud of what we’ve created and look forward to sharing where it goes.”
The track also comes alongside a dark and brooding official video from the team at Pixelframe, which explores the ideas of transition, unease and volatility in line with the themes of the song. Both Danny and Elle sought to portray this by using reverse effects and different frame rates – even learning the song in reverse so that when played forward it gives you a sense that something isn’t right, even though on a surface level, it all seems fine.

In their own work, both Elle and Danny are constantly pushing their sounds to the furthest level they can. They’re both inspired by creative evolution, as shown through their craft, but also within the mutual musical and visual influences they share. Both having found success in doing so too, with their projects selling out shows both at home and abroad off the back of ARIA-charting albums and Platinum certified singles.
Tornado Club is not the first time Woodes and The Kite String Tangle have come together – the two have featured on festival line-ups together, The Kite String Tangle aided in the production of Woodes’ debut album ‘Crystal Ball’ last year – nor is it a sign of their respective solo projects ending either. Rather it’s an opportunity for two like-minded producers, vocalists and songwriters to come together, experimenting and teaching one another through the sharing of roles – an unfamiliar and exciting experience for the pair.

AMNPLIFY – TN
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
