Director Clint Lewis from Red Tape Pictures describes the music video for When I Love Her She Sings as “a psychedelic love letter comprised of animated headshots in a technicolour landscape. Much of the imagery exists as a throwback to early experimental music videos of the 70s. Layers of coloured oils and alcohol move under the heat of a lightbulb to produce a liquid light show comprised of changing colour patterns that wash over Kilbey’s animated performance.”

The vibrant & fun video makes for an interesting departure from the black & white Film Noir style of Kilbey’s previous single ‘Sydney Rococo’ released November 2018.

Ted Howard, who mixed and engineered each track on the album Sydney Rococo, remembers each song’s recording session vividly. “Steve was in charge and enjoying himself as the ringmaster, having a lot of fun“. Listening back now to When I Love Her She Sings, Ted’s first impressions are that it sounds as colourful as the album cover looks (artwork by Gail Potocki). WILHSS’s rhythmic groove is a pronounced “strutting sexy Kilbey thing”, that “teases with lines like ‘I want to go up & kiss that caramel skin’, and then Jak Housden playing the incredible guitar melodies in the chorus, are a beautiful counterpoint to Steve’s vocals. Kilbey can be dark and thunderous, but this is the big, joyous, colourful Kilbey.”

Steve Kilbey is Australian contemporary music royalty. A prolific artist who has written, performed and produced 21 solo albums, as well as 30 with rock legends The Church. He frequently collaborates with notable artists worldwide and has over a dozen albums with these creative partners, in addition to the aforementioned bodies of work. His artistic oeuvre spans more than 45 years, and reaches outside the world of music, flowing in a cellular formation through his poetic lyrics into his psychedelic art paintings and far beyond. Steve has 3 published 3 books (with a new one in the works), composed and written 750 songs, has conjured lyrics of biblical proportions, poured out plenteous poetry and imagined and realized hundreds of original paintings.

Sydney Rococo is a collection of Steve Kilbey songs written over the last 5 years. It has been waiting in the wings for what feels like a decade. Now it is time to be born and loved. The songs sing of Sydney and her ocean pools, her underground seedy hangouts and, treachery. The picture is painted in every song about life in this fast growing and evolving Australian city, famed for her beaches and landmarks. What’s most tangible in the music is the lifestyle, habits and pastimes of those that belong to a non mainstream world. Each song is a love song, but also a tale of woe and heartache. Typical Kilbey, making us fall in love and simultaneously feel the heartbreak of loss, betrayal and abandonment. Come and feel it within a song or 11 and get your own moves on with the infectious, pumping rhythmic melodies. This is SK’s finest work to date. Fresh and modern, conceived with muses, it’s ready to conquer the world.
