With a new-found swagger and sound, Melbourne rockers Riflebirds have released their fourth LP ‘Keep It Together’ to widespread acclaim.
The band’s unique brand of upbeat guitar and keyboard driven rock – performed with passion and energy – has earned them a reputation as one of the finest acts around.
Featured on Double J, RRR and PBS, the album continues to attract high praise:
“The band have broken open this new chapter with confidence and catapulted right back into our music-loving hearts with Keep It Together…
“An album stuffed with anthemic rock ’n’ roll – the kind that would evoke a sway out of even the least rhythmically inclined…
“Riflebirds are a band at the peak of their creative and musical prowess…” Beat – November 2021.
From Brunswick to Ballarat to Byron Bay, Riflebirds have played at some of the best-known live music venues and festivals in Australia. Festival appearances include NightJar, Leaps & Bounds, Darebin Music Feast, Spring Fling and Ballarat Beer Festival – and you’ll often see them on the bill at Melbourne’s legendary live venues such as The Labour In Vain, The Retreat, The Tote, The Rainbow or The Espy.
They’ve toured up and down the east coast and beyond, sharing stages with the likes of Ron Peno and the Superstitions, Davey Lane, Ash Naylor, Dallas Crane, Dan Brodie, Ben Salter and Freya Josephine Hollick.
‘Keep It Together’ follows three other highly acclaimed studio releases: ‘Ain’t Ever Going Home’ (2018), ‘World Feels Wide’ (2016) and the debut record ‘Detours & Collisions’ (2015).
“Later this year, they’ll return with their anticipated fourth LP which, if their new singles are anything to go by, is set to be another ripper… that’ll instantly burrow its way into your brain.” Beat.
“Melbourne five-piece indie-rock band Riflebirds have broken from the cage of the pub scene and taken flight across the festival circuit. They’re on the up and up.” Ballarat Beer Festival.
