The desk is actually a set created by the ABC props department. It has its own trailer, too ;)

Trouble is, that desk is too tidy... I've worked in the media, and there should be piles a foot high before there's any suggestion that an annual cleanup could be beneficial...

However, the music is great, as always - and maybe if you could mock up a scenario where the musos sweep a huge pile of books/CDs/newspapers etc aside to find a spot to sit - would make for an amusing setup... and the pile could get bigger every time...

Nice sound too, by the way - the acoustic properties of a filthy cubicle are vastly underrated, I reckon!

Just to set the record straight...it's spotlessly clean, just very very untidy...

Thanks for a great little acoustic session from Busby Marou. These guys are pure gold! Yet another brilliant Aussie artist "unearthed" some months ago by ABC Dig Music!

I saw these guys perform last year supporting Pete Murray (I think). They did an awesome show! I am very glad to see them on the Untidy Desk series.
