“Little Birdy’s Katy Steele conjures the sweetness and the sass of Phil Spector’s girl groups and, in full flight, channels the mellifluous perfection of Dionne Warwick.” – Daily Telegraph, Kathy McCabe
“BigBigLove gave us much to love and for a young West Australian band everything to gain.” – Double J, Caz Tran
In 2004, Australian indie icons Little Birdy unleashed their debut album BigBigLove—a seminal record that launched them into the global spotlight. Now, two decades later, they’re returning to celebrate its iconic legacy with an unforgettable 21st Anniversary Tour, bringing the anthems that defined a generation back to life on stage.

Heading across the country for a run of shows from June-August, frontwoman Katy Steele is reuniting with original members Simon Leach and Scott O’Donoghue to bring BigBigLove to life like never before—performing the album in full alongside a handpicked selection of fan-favourite classics that shaped their legacy.
Katy comments, “These songs still feel just as real as they did when we first wrote them. Revisiting them as a band has been such a unique and healing experience. I can’t wait to see our old fans down the front, singing along again—just like we did all those years ago.”
Guitarist Simon Leach reflects, “I never thought this thing would have a Chapter 2. Playing on stage again, seeing Little Birdy devotees and a whole new generation singing along—it’s surreal, and we’re so grateful to be doing this again.”
To mark this milestone, Little Birdy will also be releasing BigBigLove on vinyl for the first time ever—a limited-edition 12” pressing featuring an extra 7” single with two exclusive bonus tracks, including an unreleased version of ‘Beautiful To Me’.
From their humble beginnings in the Perth music scene to dominating national and global stages, Little Birdy captured hearts with their soaring melodies, raw emotion, and anthemic indie-rock energy. Their debut album became a defining release of the early 2000s—anchored by unforgettable tracks like “Relapse” and “Beautiful To Me” which landed at # 8 on Triple J Hottest 100 and helped propel the band to stardom.
The album debuted at #5 on the ARIA charts, achieved Platinum status, and spawned a sold-out national tour that saw fans singing every word in packed venues across Australia.
With its brooding, heart-on-sleeve lyricism, fuzzy guitars, and soul-stirring vocals, BigBigLove remains one of the most beloved Australian albums of its time. Tracks like ‘Beautiful To Me’, ‘Relapse’, and ‘Tonight’s the Night’ became essential listening—played on repeat in bedrooms, at house parties, and on festival stages across the country.
Little Birdy’s rise was nothing short of meteoric. From early gigs at The Rosemount Hotel, the band quickly became one of Australia’s most exciting live acts, landing coveted slots at Big Day Out, Falls Festival, Groovin The Moo, and Homebake, and even taking their music to New York and London.
They shared the stage with some of the biggest names in music, supporting acts like REM, Bright Eyes, and Placebo, plus being supported by Tegan & Sara. Their impact was undeniable, earning them five ARIA nominations, multiple charting singles, and an enduring fanbase that still treasures their music today.
This isn’t just a reunion—it’s a celebration of the music, memories, and moments that have defined an era. Whether you were there from the very beginning or you’re discovering their music for the first time, this is your chance to experience the magic of Little Birdy live once again.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
