Notes

Marty wrote this about the project in his blog on Dec. 12, 2020:

Another project that Dare and I have been working on, Arctic Lake which is Tony from Sydney, will be sharing a 30-second teaser today with the full song coming on Dec 17th. The song is called Shimmer. I play lead and rhythm guitars on it and sing it with Olivia on BVs. Tony wrote the song and is on rhythm, DC on bass, and Nigel Macara from legendary Australian band Tamam Shud plays drums. We have recorded 4 songs so far and will keep you posted as to where you can hear them or get them as we know the facts. Andy Jossi from The Churchhill Garden is responsible for the graphics, nice one Andy.

This band was originally called "Arctic Lake," but they had to change the name when they discovered that name was already taken. In March 2021 they briefly went by the name "Arctic Seed" before settling on the name "Arktik Lake."
