Background and recording

edit

To celebrate a decade of playing music as a band, Jebediah embarked on a national tour of Australia and released the EP to coincide with the occasion.[1]

The EP was recorded in May 2005 and was self-produced by the band at Blackbird Studios in Perth, Western Australia.[2]

Content

edit

Anniversary E.P. consists of five tracks: "More Alone" (from the 2004 album Braxton Hicks), "Patty Powell" (previously unreleased), and acoustic versions of a song from each of the albums that preceded Braxton Hicks—"Harpoon" (Slightly Odway), "Feet Touch the Ground" (Of Someday Shambles) and "Yesterday When I Was Brave" (Jebediah).

The cover art of the CD featured a constructed image of the Perth skyline and the inside of the cover featured a collage of photographs from the band's history that had been compiled by bassist, Vanessa Thornton.

Release

edit

Anniversary E.P. was released on 20 June 2005 by record label Redline, a licensing label that was co-owned by the band at the time. The EP peaked at number 86 on the ARIA Singles Chart.[3]
