dandelionwineAustralian dark electro/folk duo Dandelion Wine ran a successful crowdfunding campaign through Pozible.com to raise money for their latest European Tour, which will include performances at Festival Mediaval (DE) and Bruchtal Festival (CH) along with headline shows in Estonia, Germany, Poland and the bandʼs first ever performance in Hong Kong. The campaign was so successful that they raised more than their initial target, with fans from four continents all contributing to the success. One of the rewards on offer for people who pledged money to the campaign was the opportunity to choose the colour of singer Naomi Hendersonʼs hair for the duration of the tour for a contribution of $AUD600. This reward was purchased by one of the organisers of Festival Mediaval who rather than choose the colour has instead opted to open the decision up to a vote on the festivalʼs forum and facebook page. Pink? Blue? Green? Head to www.facebook.com/DandelionWineAU to vote!

Dandelion Wine have a long history of European touring; not only do they have seven prior tours but they also lived in Berlin throughout 2009 and 2010, where they recorded the album ʻAll Becompassed By Starsʼ. They have a long history of touring throughout their native land of Australia, as well as a host of shows in Tokyo. Their live show is an energetic blend of live electronics and cranked guitars with medieval and folk instruments such as dulcimer, bell cittern, flute etc and can range from gentle acoustic ambience to impassioned and danceable blasts of intensity.
