[edit] Album details
BigBigLove is the first studio album released by Little Birdy. The album was produced by Paul McKercher (You Am I, Eskimo Joe, Augie March) at Big Jesus Burger Studios and mixed at Studios 301. BigBigLove was released in Australia on October 4, 2004 and reached #5 in the ARIA music charts and was certified gold less than a month after it's release.
Three singles were released from the album - Beautiful To Me which reached #27, Tonight's the Night and Excited which reached #44.
The Album was nominated for four ARIA Awards in 2004 being for Best Breakthrough Artist - Album, Best Rock Album, Best Producer and Best Engineer [1].
Two tracks from the album reached the Triple J Hottest 100 for 2004, being "Beautiful To Me" at number 8 and "Tonight's the Night" at number 78 [2].
The album showcases the band’s sweeping musical range... from the irresistible melodies of the first single Beautiful To Me through the moody epic Message To God. Edgy live favourite Excited contrasts dramatically with the fragile beauty of Close To You. And there’s a powerful re-recording of Relapse.
"The main thing that I wanted to do with this record was to have as much classic, memorable melody as possible. The songs are all based on feelings and emotion, for each song had a particular vision. It covers all the colours we wanted to show with a first record. BigBigLove is built from that big hole I had inside", said Katy. " It’s amazing how close this band has become and how fast we understand each other now. We have grown a million years in one year."[3]
