Radio Birdman recording new album
Influential early Australian punk act Radio Birdman are currently in the process of recording a new album. The band expects the record to be out by July 2006.
While the band's original run lasted from 1974 to 1978, the full line up of Radio Birdman reunited for the Big Day Out festivals in `96 and `97. This reunion resulted in the live record Ritualism. In 2001 their profile in the US rose with the Sub Pop released compilation The Essential Radio Birdman: 1974-1978. The band's line up has shifted since the reunion, so the new record will be the current incarnation's first major recording.
This month Radio Birdman is touring throughout Australia, with European and US tours planned for September and October of this year. Click below for the dates.
