about
Here Come the Birds formed as a five piece in 2005, and since their inception they have graced stages in major venues across Australia as the headline act in front of sold out crowds as well as supporting nationally renowned touring bands. Inspired by such acts as At the Drive In, Brand New and Bloc Party, they released independent demos in 2005 and 2006 giving a taste of things to come to their growing fan base. In the summer of 2008, Here Come the Birds recorded their debut EP at Powerhouse Studios under the watchful gaze of ARIA award nominated producer Greg Stace. With the release of their debut EP the band has managed to carve out an original sound displaying a diverse mix of new wave, indie and post punk genres, combining to fuel an original and eclectic EP. The self titled EP has been released to critical acclaim, with the opening track 'Bravery and Defeat' gaining regular airplay on Triple J, with music director Richard Kingsmill stating he 'liked it straight away. The vocals are top notch, the band is equally driving. Bit of the Brit Bloc Party rhythm comes through and a touch of indie US punk. Bring on some more please...' 2008 was a huge year for Here Come the Birds after winning Tooheys Extra Dry competition 2 and playing the main stage at Splendour in the Grass along side acts like Vampire Weekend, The Wombats and Devo and playing the Perth chapter of the Boost Mobile Rock the Schools Tour with Van She, Operator Please and Sky Bombers.
