Ned Collette is an Australian born, Berlin based singer, instrumentalist, songwriter, and producer. He has long established himself as a songwriter whose literate, evocative songs are paired with music that’s both adventurous and eclectic. His early background in improvised and experimental guitar music has resulted in six albums of uncompromising vision, released on a variety of international labels. His 2018 double album, Old Chestnut, was released on Feeding Tube Records out of Florence, MA and was his introduction to a lot of U.S. audiences. It is a deep and complex folk song-cycle featuring musicians like the Necks' Chris Abrahams amongst Ned's regular collaborators. In addition to his song work, he has released works such as Afternoon--Dusk, a trio record of long-form instrumental music with James Rushford and Joe Talia.

2022 saw the first ever vinyl re-issue of his 2006 debut, Jokes and Trials, with the liner notes describing "a rich velvet voice somewhere between fragile youth and aged sage."


Ned's live performances drift between delicate, intimate folk and explorative jam-outs, both when performing solo or with his band. He is currently working on new material featuring Abrahams and Dirty Three's Mick Turner.

Over the years he has performed with such as artists as Joanna Newsom,Cat Power, Bill Callahan, St. Vincent, Kurt Vile, Deerhoof, amongst many others.

Ginger Ibex makes use of strings, piano, and percussion along with a wealth of ethnic influences and selected classical chops to create a sound that is as hard to classify as it is beguiling. Pianist Sharon Crumrine's earliest influences were Beethoven and the Romantic & Impressionistic composers, plus Middle Eastern modes, Tango and contemporary Rock. Mezzo-violist Betty Widerski's eclectic background and creative & technical ability on a wild variety of stringed instruments give Ginger Ibex a powerful yet lyrical sound.
