Perth indie outfit, Little Birdy achieved an impressive amount of attention with their debut album BigBigLove back in 2004. They made less of a splash with their followup in 2006 but now in 09 they're set to dazzle again with the release of their third studio album, Confetti.
It's difficult to know whether the current hype surrounding the release of Confetti is justified or merely a ploy to put some excitement back in the Little Birdy camp, What with lead singer Katie Steele's brother Luke having done so well with his latest project Empire of the Sun. Perhaps the shadow of her older brother is getting too much.
But then again people who like one don't necessary like the other. As years pass the Steele siblings target audiences grow further and further apart. An occurrence that I think could ultimately be for the best.
If you're already a fan of Little Birdy then Confetti certainly won't change your opinion on their brilliance.
If you've yet to get into their sound then I suppose this is as good a place to start as any.
Confetti is full of hummable melodies, memorable riffs and the occasional surprise.
Little Birdy will be touring the country all month in order to promote said release. The reaction so far has been more then a little favorable with most shows so far selling out long before hand.
Don't get left behind. Jump on the proverbial band wagon and give Little Birdy a chance. Could be well worth your while.
