Back in March 2013, Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns teamed up with New Zealand singer Kimbra and legendary producer Van Dyke Parks to performed together in a special night at Australia annual music festival, Adelaide Festival 2013 which took place at the Thebarton Theatre. The short documentary shot by photographer Thomas Kerr, Kimbra shared her experienced with personal hero Johns, and Parks, a respected composer who’s worked with The Beach Boys, Joanna Newsom, Ry Cooder, and Silverchair. Johns had previously worked with Parks on Silverchair’s 2002 album Diorama, with the three performing songs from that record, as well as tracks from Parks’ universally acclaimed, though notoriously commercially unsuccessful, 1967 album Song Cycle. Watch their journey in a short documentary below.
