Something for Kate are a three piece band from Melbourne, Australia who formed in 1995. The band have to date released five albums, a double album of b-sides,a double Best -Of album, a DVD, a video collection, three e.p's, and too many singles to mention.

After spending most of 2005 writing songs for their fifth album, the band went to Los Angeles to record the latest album,'Desert Lights' with producer/engineer Brad Wood ( Liz Phair, Pete Yorn, Tortoise, Veruca Salt, Ben Lee,Smashing Pumpkins). After 4 months, the album was completed and the band returned to Australia to continue touring.

While the band was in the studio in L.A. they kept a studio dairy on www.somethingforkate.com which can also be viewed here.


Desert Lights was released in 2006 and after the band toured substancially, they then released their first compliation, the double album, 'The Murmur Years - The Best of Something For Kate 1996 - 2007'.

After both SFK and Paul signed to EMI Australia in January of 2009, Dempsey soon recorded his first solo album titled Everything Is True due for release on August 14th 2009. SFK will resume writing for their next album very soon.

So turns out this new surfing buddy of mine (Johnny Utah) was a cop all along!

Can you believe it!!?

We're gonna take him skydiving then rob a bank together. That'll learn him to 'act' his way into our surf gang.




Nice to meet you by the way. Beautiful Sharks is in my top ten albums.

High fives!
