Snowman

**Snowman** was a boundary-pushing experimental rock band hailing from Perth, Australia, active in the mid-2000s. Known for their eerie, cinematic soundscapes and visceral live performances, the group blended post-punk, art-rock, and psychedelic influences into something wholly unpredictable. Their lineup included Andy Citawarman (vocals/guitar), Joe McKee (vocals/keyboards), and other rotating members, crafting a reputation for intense, tribal rhythms and haunting vocals.

The band’s standout album, *The Horse, The Rat and The Swan* (2007), earned critical praise for its dark, hypnotic energy, while *Absence* (2011) marked their final release before disbanding. Snowman’s self-titled debut (*Snowman*, 2006) showcased their raw, primal beginnings. Despite their short-lived career, they left a lasting imprint on Australia’s underground music scene, celebrated for their fearless creativity and brooding atmospherics. Their abrupt split in 2011 cemented their legacy as enigmatic cult favorites.
