White Shadows formed thanks to a chance comment. Nick Littlemore — member of Empire of the Sun, Pnau, and producer to many had read an interview with The Vines’ Craig Nicholls, in which the frontman said he’d one day like to make an “electronic Fantasia” record. The resulting album features an all-star cast of over 40 musicians including Jim Moginie from Midnight Oil, Stella Mozgawa from Warpaint, Touch Sensitive, the Boy & Bear guys, Kirin J Callinan, Jono and Gab from Jagwar Ma, and produced by legendary British post-punk producer Nick Launay.
