Three Cane Whale is a new multi-instrumental trio, playing acoustic miniatures which draw influence from folk and minimalist music.

Three Cane Whale’s eponymous debut album was recorded live (by Spiro’s Jon Hunt) in an eleven hour shift in an eighteenth-century Bristol church during the summer. Distant snippets of birdsong occasionally spill into the mix, which also celebrates the eccentric creakings and clickings of the trio’s unusual instrumentation. The music encompasses both a cinematic sweep and an intimate delicacy. Tracks from the album have been played on Cerys Matthews’ BBC 6Radio show, BBC Radio 3′s Late Junction and Resonance FM.
