A bell rang out across a valley. Once "Jemima". Twice "Jemima". The
third, together for the first time; "JemimaJemima". The bell that rang
shone bronze to the wind, and on these terms, JemimaJemima are a
"metal" band. The wind gently blew the grass of the valley, and in this
way, JemimaJemima are a "folk" group. YET, my friends The wind turned
the bells vibrations into silence, and in this way JemimaJemima are a
expression of nothing at all.

Jemima Jemima is BLOOD
OATH, LOFTY
CLOUD, ALICE KLEISTER and JAH
GRILL.

Australian colonial history is the location for discussions of language,
representation, and ultimate truths...man.

"His thirst for Quinine left him spiritually dry, yet finer men
have suffered the ravages of Malaria"

An absurd collection of tumbling off signature skin thumping, erratic
free consciousness guitar and shrieking operatic vocals serve to underline
the ambiguity of direct expressions, inequity of dominant historical
representations (see artwork, dude) or very possibly, nothing in particular.

"every time I eat, every time I drink, I disappear, and every time
I fly from my cage, I am disappointed"

Their debut Album "Redcoats" is dedicated to untold
histories; shearers, convicts, settlers, murderers, cannibals, opium
dealers, prostitutes, miners, immigrants, and above all, the Indigenous
nations of this usurped island.

"Oh my GOD, where did they go? I'm a sitting target, in a red coat..."
