Carnivorous Plant Society is an enigmatic ensemble hailing from New Zealand, known for their eclectic mix of instrumental and experimental music that weaves together a tapestry of genres, ranging from jazz, exotica, to cinematic soundscapes. The group is the brainchild of composer, multi-instrumentalist, and animator Finn Scholes, who founded the band and remains at the heart of their creative output. Scholes, along with a rotating crew of talented musicians, has crafted a unique auditory experience that is as intriguing and distinctive as the band's name suggests. With an array of instruments including horns, strings, and synthesizers, Carnivorous Plant Society tells whimsical and often fantastical stories through their compositions.

Their music, characterized by its evocative melodies and lush arrangements, is both playful and profound, taking listeners on journeys through otherworldly realms. Albums and tracks like "The Plants" and "Phantom Finger" encapsulate their ability to combine narrative elements with adventurous musicality. Through releases such as "My Mum is Proud of Me" and "The People Below," they display their knack for blending humor with depth, creating soundtracks for the imagination. Carnivorous Plant Society's work has not only garnered them a loyal following in their home country but has also resonated with audiences internationally, earning them a reputation as one of the most innovative and visually engaging live acts around.
