Having grown up playing piano but primarily writing on guitar, Ivan found himself returning to the instrument during long stretches of solitude in the Western Desert. Ivan explains, \"I bought a piano when I moved out there and started writing on it, which was something I'd not really ever done before.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA deep connection to place remains central to the album's identity. Rather than recording elsewhere, Ivan chose to make the record on Arrernte Country, where many of the songs were written and where their emotional landscape felt most at home. \"The songs I've been doing for some time now always feel really grounded in the desert country. We organised a show the night before recording at the local tin shed theatre on the banks of the dry river bed that runs through town, The Totem Theatre. This way we had the pressure of getting the songs together in front of people.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMusically, \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOf Nothing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e sits somewhere between alternative rock and desert-folk. The album carries the influence of songwriters such as \u003cstrong\u003eMark Lanegan, Nick Cave, Leonard Cohen \u003c\/strong\u003eand \u003cstrong\u003eSharon Van Etten\u003c\/strong\u003e, while remaining grounded in the desert country and the remote landscape on which it was written.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"It's meant to feel like a car dropping into the low road, trying to escape a dust storm trailing in from the west. It's meant to drive forward with a kind of quiet intensity. Some soft moments of longing and memory. A feeling that everything could collapse.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt its core, \u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOf Nothing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e is an album concerned with beauty found inside bleakness. Throughout the record, Ivan returns to recurring themes of longing, love, desperation and the strange futility that shadows everyday existence. It also represents a continuation of a lifelong relationship with songwriting. Ivan credits his mother, who is a songwriter herself, with introducing him to guitar and piano, and the music of\u003cstrong\u003e Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Sinéad O'Connor, Radiohead \u003c\/strong\u003eand \u003cstrong\u003eNick Cave, \u003c\/strong\u003eat an early age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e1.
