Pumice

Pumice is a New Zealand experimental music project centred on Stefan Neville. Beginning in Hamilton in the early 1990s, its recordings bring guitar, voice, organ and tape-based experiments into contact with rough-edged pop and folk songs. Albums such as Yeahnahvienna, Pebbles and Quo reflect Neville’s handmade approach to recording. The project has also included other musicians, notably original collaborator Sugar Jon Arcus and later violinist and guitarist Jade Farley, who joined Neville on recordings including Phylis.
