Drawing influences from Bob Dylan to Joan as Policewoman, and Neil Young to the Smiths, mushu was formed in Sydney, Australia 2007 and are now releasing their second EP "Wild Fire".

Produced by Luke Bertoz and mixed by Wayne Connolly (Josh Pyke, You am I), "Wild Fire" is a warm record where distortion is used sparingly, reverb is generous, synths come out to play, rich harmonies are affluent and hints of discordance bite you to keep you on your feet.

With an acoustic tour of America and Canada in August and an LP in pre-production, mushu have a busy few months ahead of them.

Their live shows are full of emotion and energy and are an explosive experience for both the listener and the band. They can take you to an absolute high, but then, without you even knowing, gently bring you down to tell you stories of tragedy and loss.

mushu have been played on Triple J and Fbi radio stations and have performed at venues such as The Gaelic Theatre, Annandale hotel, Beach rd hotel, The Vanguard, Spectrum….

Drum Media Review MAY 08 - Michael Smith
mushu ep 'neverland'
Simply beautiful acoustic pop with inbuilt cello alternatively adding ambience and that oh so necessary swoon factor, this Sydney 5-piece know just how to caress the ears without ever slipping into insipidness or gooey sentimentality. Their arrangements display a taut sincerity to match the languorous vocals and limpid lyricism, with just enough dynamic and drama to pull you up just as you gently slip into some conformable dream state, images and ideas perceivable just the other side of a lazy blink. The commitment to excellence even at this early stage of their career, is obvious.
