Kilbey’s solo recordings are challenging & evocative…joyous and dreamy to saturnine and sardonic
Ian McFarlane.

Steve Kilbey, one of Australia’s most loved artists, released his new solo album, Sydney Rococo, on November 23 via Golden Robot Records. Kilbey has just wrapped up a massive tour with The Church celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the bands Starfish album.

Sydney Rococo is a collection of songs Kilbey has written over the last 5 years. The songs sing of Sydney and her ocean pools, her underground seedy hangouts and treachery. The picture is painted in every song about life in this fast growing and evolving Australian city, famed for her beaches and landmarks. What’s most tangible in the music is the lifestyle, habits and pastimes of those, that belong to a non mainstream world.  Each song is a love song, but also a tale of woe and heartache.  Typical Kilbey, making us fall in love and simultaneously feel the heartbreak of loss, betrayal and abandonment.  Come and feel it within a song or 11 and get your own moves on with the infectious, pumping rhythmic melodies.  This is SK’s finest work to date. Fresh and modern, conceived with muses, it’s ready to conquer the world.

Steve Kilbey reflects on Sydney Rococo“Sydney Rococo is my Sydney filtered thru lush orchestras and sighing voices. The summers the dreams the vegetation always pushing skywards. The inexorable rush of love and the deep chasm of loneliness. Songs about things that happened and things that never could have happened. Songs for a banker or for a tramp. Songs about the seediness and the sea. Songs of Sydney morning and Sydney night.”
