F Ingers

F ingers is a Melbourne, Australia-based trio who create sparse, haunting darkwave folk with shadowy vocals, spacious acoustic guitars, fluid bass guitar, and sparingly used synthesizer. Consisting of Tarquin Manek and Sam Karmel (both of Bum Creek) along with vocalist Carla dal Forno (of Mole House), the group initially went by the name Fingers Pty Ltd and released Broken Fingers on Night People. In 2014, Manek and dal Forno formed Tarcar and released the Mince Glace EP on Blackest Ever Black. That label also released Hide Before Dinner, the debut LP by the newly rechristened F ingers, in 2015. The group also issued a tour-only cassette that year called Trilogy: They Got the Best Heart. ~ Paul Simpson
