It begins 4 years ago in a vibrant music scene in Melbourne Australia. Renowned Australian producer Tim Whitten (The Panics, Art of Fighting) heard a copy of Tamas Wells’ home recorded songs and invited he and his friends to Megaphon studios in Sydney to record a debut album. This collection of songs made up the album ‘A Mark on the Pane’ which was released on Australia’s Popboomerang Records and peaked at 16 on the Australian AIR charts. The band went on to do five Australian national tours through 2004.
• “one of the year’s (2004) most beautiful records” (Inpress Melbourne)
• “beautiful melodies, dreamy arrangements and vocals that are virtually out of this world” (Baby Sue US 5+/5 stars)
• "absolutely marvellous" (4.5/5 stars, Time Off magazine, Brisbane) • "A Mark on the Pane is a beautiful album destined to become a cult record for many" (Savio Records, Italy) • "I wouldn't presume to try and convince anyone that the joy that comes with discovering an album like this is a once in a lifetime experience, but it is one of those timeless gems that will be on many personal top 10 lists for many years to come" (Music Works zine, UK) • "A gentle masterpiece" (dB Magazine Adelaide)
• "Nick Drake's folk meeting up with Iceland's stately Sigur Ros a beautiful, sublime record" (8/10 stars Australian Financial Review)
The second part begins after recording songs for a second album when Tamas Wells left Australia to live in the city of Yangon in Burma in South East Asia. Despite this move the 2006 album A Plea en Vendredi with its Beat Magazine Single of the Week ‘Valder Fields’ received glowing reviews and airplay in Australia. As well as an Australian release, Tamas Wells also signed a deal with renowned Tokyo based label Inpartmaint Records in Japan and also with Beijing based label Pocket Records (Dirty Three, Maximilian Hecker). The album gained significant airplay and went on to sell several thousand copies remarkably reaching number 16 in Japan's HMV Shibuya international chart. The release culminated in a sell out tour of four Japanese cities in August 2007.
• "A delight from start to finish!" (Express magazine, Perth) • "Wells is already revered for his gentle voice and mysteriously moving lyrics and this 11 track gem will only enhance his reputation for beautifully broken art’’ (Daily Telegraph, Sydney) • "Nothing else needs to be said except that we HIGHLY RECOMMEND this album WITHOUT RESERVATION. A Plea en Vendredi is, quite simply, a beautiful and intricate masterpiece" (Baby Sue, US)
The new Tamas Wells album 'Two Years in April' was released in May 2008 and is available now.
