Kilbey Kennedy - Things We Did On Earth
In 1981 a teenage Martin Kennedy watched Steve Kilbey and The Church play at a strange hippie festival in Australia. They were outliers at this festival and he fell in love with their look and sound. He recorded their set on a walkman, and the songs helped spark the beginning of his music career. Just a year before, an equally fresh-faced Steve Kilbey formed The Church in Sydney, the very beginning of their public life as accidental hit makers. Forty five years later Martin and Steve find themselves working together on their ninth (add a bunch side projects to this epic side project and they're about 20 albums in) studio album 'Things We Did On Earth.' It's always so simple: Steve calls Martin: hey we're touring Tassie got a few spare days to record an album? Martin: Heck yes. And that's it. Martin writes the music and Steve rocks ups to write and sings the words. No argument, no egos, just a matter of pressing record. They live in their own bubble, lost in a reverie, heads in the clouds. Martin doesn't listen to any new music but his own. Steve enters his dream state and writes like there's no tomorrow. 'Things We Did On Earth' is the culmination of everything that has lead up to this moment. It tells of mortality, dreams, other worlds, whatever you damn like. It could be their last album, but then they've been saying that for the last fifteen years. Indeed these are the things Steve Kilbey and Martin Kennedy do on earth.
