The last ten years has seen proud Western Australian plasterer, Peter Bibby, make some serious in-roads, becoming one of the country’s key musical cult figures and packing out rooms all over the country. Inherently working-class and wholeheartedly independent, Bibby cut his teeth in the rough-and-tumble underground rock scene centered around Perth’s Hyde Park Hotel in Western Australia.

Originally released in 2014, Butcher / Hairstylist / Beautician now returns on 180g solid orange vinyl for its 10th anniversary re-issue. Bibby says of the re-release: “It’s hard to believe that 10 years has passed since we dropped this absolute haymaker of a record. Those heady Melbourne days seem like they were just yesterday. Where has the time gone? A lot has changed over the years, but one thing has stayed the same for sure and that is how absolutely killer these songs are. When I listened back to the record to see if I wanted to change anything for the re-release I felt a bit nervous, like I was going to cringe my way through the tracks. I was pleasantly surprised, choosing to change nothing as it is completely unbroken and in need of no fixing.”

Bibby continues, “Butcher / Hairstylist / Beautician holds a very special place in my heart, the record that put me on the map, full of songs I wrote before anyone really gave a shit. It’s pure and unaffected by the outside world and paints a detailed picture of a very different time in my life.”

One such song is “Stinking Rich”, for which Bibby reveals the previously unreleased music video today, directed by Triana Hernandez (Amyl and the Sniffers, Harvey Sutherland, Desire Marea). Big day to be a Bibby fan!

Since his debut, Peter Bibby’s affable personality and honest songwriting have earned him fans around the world. He’s toured the U.S. with Pond, played the legendary open mic night at Pappy and Harriet’s in the California desert, and taken the stage at renowned festivals such as Laneway, Falls, All Points East, South by Southwest and South Africa’s Rocking the Daisies—all while delivering his own rowdy headlining shows. Known for his captivating live performances, Bibby’s March 2025 tour promises to be particularly special, as he reunites with original band members Nicholas Allbrook and Jonny Baird for five dates celebrating Butcher / Hairstylist / Beautician. Tickets are available now at spinningtopmusic.com.

“Butcher/Hairstylist/Beautician is a triumph and one of the year’s best albums, from Australia or anywhere.  Bibby didn’t just give us a terrific album; he threatened to become a great Australian lyricist to rival the likes of Nick Cave and Paul Kelly.” – The West Australian
