Basement Birds - Basement Birds

2010 release from this Australian 'supergroup' consisting of four of the country's finest singer/sognwriters: Kevin Mitchell, Steve Parkin, Josh Pyke and Kav Temperley. Basement Birds can't decide if they're more like the Travelling Wilburys, the Highwaymen or the Three Tenors, but one thing is sure - they're none of those. They're Basement Birds, a unique teaming of four of Australia's premier singer/songwriters within the one group. It would be easy to say that their debut album, came together during an idyllic, boozy long, lost weekend on the coast. But with Kevin Mitchell's highly successful Bob Evans guise, Josh Pyke's ongoing solo triumph, Kav Temperley's tenure as Eskimo Joe frontman and Steve Parkin headed towards a long-awaited debut solo album, it would take three years for this quartet to start it's roll. Here is the end result at last.
