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. 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.

Additional information
Personnel: Basement Birds (vocals, various instruments); Lee Jones (guitars, lap steel guitar, piano); Malcolm Clark, Shaun Luke Sibbes (drums, percussion). Audio Mixer: Andy Lawson. Recording information: Shabbey Roads Studio, Hamilton Hill (11/2009-05/2010). Basement Birds list Eskimo Joe's Kavyen Temperley among the group members, but trade alt-rock for alt-country -- though to what extent it's really "alternative" is debatable. It's a good record anyway, full of nice vocal harmonies and acoustic guitar strumming, but not devoid of dynamics: the catchy "Not the One," for example, is simply a good pop/rock song, and some of the country numbers also roll along at a good tempo and to a merry banjo drone. At its core, though, the group's debut is a pretty laid-back, midtempo affair with plenty of calm vocals -- almost like Sparklehorse at times, but even poppier, veering close to Mike + the Mechanics, especially when doing that background whistling. At its chilliest, the album offers purely acoustic folk, although -- thankfully -- that is not interpreted as a mandate simply to strum away on three basic chords. This is not to say the music is complex, but the quieter songs leave an aftertaste not unlike Jethro Tull's folk excursions, and the rest has good pop sensibilities. The record is very much focused on the vocals, which are big but appropriately gentle throughout, while the bandmembers take care to show their chops by throwing in a nice acoustic instrumental, too. On the whole, there isn't much technically to differentiate Basement Birds from country's big names -- the same love of melody, the slightly rustic sentimentality, the good-old kind-natured jolly fun -- but the folky vibe removes most of the artificial sheen that Keith Urban and his breed revel in, making the record sound honestly down to earth without actually losing the sweet catchy sappiness. ~ Alexey Eremenko
