A prime crop of experimental and left-field Australian artists remix songs from Shoeb Ahmad’s candid and captivating album “quiver”.
“”quiver” is raw emotion harnessed and vulnerability explored. At a time where acceptance and empathy is needed the most, this album is crucial” Weirdo Wasteland
“a moving, intricate record, made singular by its tender, sometimes gut-wrenching, vulnerability” Gusher
Shoeb Ahmad bared all with the release of “quiver” – her tome to the complexities of life and acceptance. Built upon the trinity of identity – gender, race and religion – Shoeb mapped out a narrative that reflected on her state of mind, familial truths, social disconnection, relationships and personal politics with words that can change from delicate to fierce with the flick of a tongue.

Featuring: Spirit Bunny, Jasmine Guffond, Wives, Hence Therefore, Erasers, Naif, Tilman Robinson, raven, Aphir, MP, Maria Moles.
Released 28 June 2019 on Cassette and Digital.
