5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful to me!, February 24, 2005

By	James "emma" (Adelaide, SA Australia) - See all my reviews

This is probablly one of, if not the greatest album to come out of australia in 2004. Little Birdy is an amazing band, blending rock,blues and country into one of the freshest sounds on the australian music scene. "beautiful to me" is just one such example of their irresistable melodies. "tonight's the night" "relapse" and "excited" all showcase the raw talent and creativity of this band's huge potential for success. Unfortunatley "this is a love song" did not make it onto the Perth band's debut album, but not to worry they have an Ep under the same title. This album will never leave your CD player, you won't be dissapointed with big big love. Katey Steele (sister of luke steele, lead singer of the sleepy jackson) has such a beautiful raw voice that has been compared to the likes of Kate Bush, PJ Harvey and Chrissy Hynde (and katey is the sexiest women behind a guitar). Katey is complimented beautifully by Simon Leach on guitar, Scott O'Donoghue on bass and backing vocals and the vibrant Matt Chequer on drums. Little Birdy is one of Australia's best new talents, don't miss out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Katie Steele Rocks, June 27, 2006

By	Mark (Melbourne, Australia) - See all my reviews

This is the first album from Little Birdy.

I must admit I was a bit sceptical when I first heard Little Birdy, Katie Steele's vocals are quite different and do take a little bit of getting used to, but after seeing the band live at a small venue in Melbourne, Australia I realised that this band rocked.

The album in quite short in length but the quality is sensational.

Do yourself a favour and purchase this, you will not be disappointed.

Also if you can get your hands on Katie Steele's version of "These boots are made for walking" released a long time before Jessica Simpson, you will see what I mean. Katie puts a lot more rock and sex appeal into it and makes it sound sensational.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sugar Poppy Melancholy, February 14, 2006

By	praj (Australia) - See all my reviews

From the Western Australian alterno-pop-rock school (if that describes it), where most of Austrlia's good stuff has come from of late. Not soemthing I would normally seek out, but I really like it.

The obvious uniqueness with this is the vocals, can't think of who it reminds me of, some 80's sugar pop, like a girly girly high pitched smoker. Different, but really lends something to the jangly guitar driven music.

That said, a unique voice doesn't make a great singer or a great song, but these songs are really good if not better, and the singing is honest, heartfelt and edgy. The vocal melodies feed and soar from the melancholy love gone wrong music.

Well worth checking out along with Eskimo Jo, otherwise I'll stick to my wanky prog-rock.
