Bird's Robe: This Is Family Episode One The Beginning

15 years ago, Bird's Robe Records was launched with a live show in a little club in Sydney called the Excelsior Hotel, along with our first 2 releases.

Since then, it's been a truly incredible ride. Hundreds of shows, thousands of fans & millions of streams (not dollars, haha), for artists who don't tread a musical path that would be considered conventional.

This is the story of how some of Australia's most unlikely underground musicians were drawn in together under a bird-themed moniker and go on to form a scene that would see its music shared across the globe.

This documentary seeks to tell this story in ambitious fashion - because the story of Bird's Robe, is the story of the bands themselves.
