Despite the success of Little Birdy’s second album in 2006, singer Katy Steele now says they lost some control with an overseas producer. So this one was done at their own pace. And though it took a year to record with flourishes like brass, strings and even a theremin, it’s actually a more organic sound, back towards the simpler pleasures of their first album. That’s marked by songs like Into My Arms and the hidden track Porcelain being done in one take. They also telegraphed that mood change with Brother, a free download, and now the scene-setting opener. It starts off modestly enough, driven by acoustic guitar and a vulnerable vocal, until extra lift comes from handclaps and harmonica (by Paul Kelly, who also sings here). And, yes, Katy says it was inspired by brother Luke (from The Sleepy Jackson, of course). And though confetti is normally associated with happy times, the title track is the band at their most dramatic, with Steele unleashing her best catch-in-the-throat vocals. And even where a track sounds happy (Dark Of Night’s rinky-dink piano), the lyrics reveal something starker. But there’s more than one emotion on show here, as the more pop-oriented guitar brightness of Summarize and Run Run Run reveal. Steele says the album came out of a bittersweet year of ups and downs. If so, it must feel good to have it end on such a strong note.
