Not Drowning, Waving :

Not Drowning, Waving were a musical group formed in Melbourne, Australia in
1983 (though they first performed as a group in 1984) by David Bridie and
John Phillips. Their music combined elements of rock, ambient music and
world music; their lyrics dealt with characteristically Australian topic:
word-pictures of landscapes and people, the seasons, and some political
issues (such as Indonesia's invasion of East Timor). Their name is derived
from Stevie Smith's poem "Not Waving but Drowning".
Not Drowning, Waving broke up in 1994; some of the members (including
Bridie and cellist Helen Mountford) went on to form My Friend The Chocolate
Cake.
In 2005, Not Drowning, Waving resurfaced with a performance at the 2005
WOMADelaide festival.
