"There is a seductive charm about this record.It is a charm which is in part a result of Kavisha Mazzella's strikingly beautiful and clear vocals,partly a product of her ability to craft songswhich mix odd cultural elements and come up with something fresh and newand partly a result of the diversity and excellence of the Perth musicians she has used, who play everything from cellos to oboes and illean pipes.
"Mazzella's talents lies in the material she has written and chosen. Across 12 tracks, she ranges froma suitably nautical musical arrangement of John Maisefields' Sea Fever" through a hauntigly beautiful version of the old Irish ballad "She Moves Through The Fair" to the genre defying "Madonna del Mare".
That a singer/songwriter of this calibre needeed funding assistance from the WA Department of Arts is yet another indictment of the choth eared multinationals who dominate the local music industry. Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald
"Mermaids In The Well"(1995) is a beautiful album.Under the loving guidance and musical arrangements of Lee Buddle (Soundmine Studios Perth West Australia) and John Reed, it took 5 years to make! It was released in 1995. It is an independant production distributed by Blackmarket music Australia.and a true labour of love featuring performances by Perth finest musicians such as Lucky Oceans, Ross Bolleter, Rich'n Famous, Peter Grayling and John Reed and Lee Buddle and many others...enjoy!
