Dawn Diver and Flow Wilson

Dawn Diver is a new project led by New Zealand musician Ben Lemi (Trinity Roots, French for Rabbits). The group features the multi-faceted talents of vocalists Deanne Krieg (Ida Lune, Whim) and Holly Beals (Family Cactus, Encouragement), bass player Will Sklenars (DJ Animorph, Garrett Street Collective), and drummer Hikurangi Shaverien-Kaa (French for Rabbits, Glass Vaults).

Since 2014 Lemi has composed and shaped the material for Dawn Diver drawing from the depths of waking dreams and the forest whispers of Mt. Victoria’s dizzying heights. Subtly manipulating frameworks of lyrical narratives, groove based music, song forms, and electronic timbres, Dawn Diver’s music holds a harmonically colourful aesthetic with a driving pulse. April 12th at Meow will see the first live incarnation of the project with support from the formidable aural artist Flo Wilson.
