Killing Heidi

Killing Heidi are an Australian rock band, formed in Violet Town, Victoria in 1996, initially as a folk-pop duo by siblings Ella and Jesse Hooper. The band has released three studio albums: Reflector (March 2000), which reached No. 1 on the ARIA Albums Chart, Present (October 2002) and Killing Heidi (August 2004). Their top 20 singles are "Weir" (October 1999), "Mascara" (November, No. 1 on ARIA Singles Chart), "Live Without It" (April 2000), "Outside of Me" (September 2002) and "I Am" (July 2004). At the ARIA Music Awards of 2000 they were nominated in seven categories and won four trophies: Album of the Year, Best Group, Breakthrough Artist – Album and Best Rock Album for Reflector. At the APRA Music Awards of 2001 Ella and Jesse Hooper won Songwriter of the Year. The group disbanded in 2006, with Ella and Jesse taking a lower profile with an acoustic folk duo, The Verses. In 2016, it was announced that the band would be reforming to celebrate its 20th anniversary, and the band have continued to tour since.

Outside of the band, Ella also has a career as a solo performer, radio presenter and TV personality. Jesse, meanwhile, has a career as a music teacher, producer and community arts developer.

History

Early years (1996–1999)

The group had a gig at the Melbourne Push Over concert in 1996.<ref name="McFarlane"/> Paul Kosky, a Melbourne-based engineer-producer, who had worked with Crowded House, Rage Against the Machine, Kate Ceberano, and The Clouds, was looking for a new band to manage and record.<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="Nimmervoll"/> Kosky had heard "Kettle" on the radio and decided to check them out at Push Over.<ref name="Nimmervoll"/> In March 2000 Kosky recalled that their rhythm section were musically weak, although the siblings showed "a raw talent I knew could be turned into a global appeal."<ref name="Eliezer Mar00"/> The group signed to his management company in 1997 and his new recording label, Wah Wah Music (established with US-based investor, Chris Robinson) in the following year.<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="Nimmervoll"/> Kosky helped develop the band for two years and, as their manager, arranged a distribution deal with Roadshow Music (which also had a contract with Savage Garden) for his own label.<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="Nimmervoll"/>

Commercial success (1999–2003)

{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} In July 1999 Killing Heidi performed at the Grounded Festival and then launched their first national tour.<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="Nimmervoll"/> To coincide with the festival gig they issued their début single, "Weir", which eventually reached No. 6 on the ARIA Singles Chart.<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="AUS Charts">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> McFarlane described it as a "winning mix of quiet/loud acoustic/churning electric guitars, adolescent angst and sing-along pop with a funky mid-section."<ref name="McFarlane"/> Music journalist, Ed Nimmervoll, felt it was "a tale of life after high school."<ref name="Nimmervoll"/> It was certified platinum by Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipment of 70,000 copies by the end of that year.<ref name="ARIA Sing99">Template:Cite certification</ref>

The second single "Mascara", about self-image and individuality,<ref name="Nimmervoll"/> was released in November 1999.<ref name="McFarlane"/> A five-track maxi-single version, "Mascara"/"Leave Me Alone", followed in January 2000.<ref name="McFarlane"/> This version reached the top of the national charts, on 30 January,<ref name="AUS Charts"/> which was Ella's 17th birthday.<ref name="McFarlane"/> It stayed at No. 1 for three weeks,<ref name="AUS Charts"/> and was certified platinum at the end of that year.<ref name="ARIA Sing00">Template:Cite certification</ref> "Mascara" was accompanied by a music video,<ref name="Philbey">Template:Citation</ref> which was directed by Kosky.<ref name="Moller">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> He recalled, "There was some very straight commercial radio that said, 'We will never play this song,'... I hear that station play it [now] and... We've made a difference, and we've educated them."<ref name="Jones">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

BillboardTemplate:'s Christie Eliezer reported that Killing Heidi were one of three "major domestic breakouts" in 1999 in Australia, "all released on independent labels".<ref name="Eliezer Mar00">Template:Cite magazine</ref> The other two musical acts were Vanessa Amorosi and Sister2Sister – all three "were still in high school when their records first entered the charts."<ref name="Eliezer Mar00"/> Eliezer noticed that Killing Heidi had a "flamboyant, outspoken appeal [that] gained pop, rock, and fashion media coverage."<ref name="Eliezer Mar00"/>

Reflector was released in March 2000 and had a début at No. 1;<ref name="McFarlane"/><ref name="AUS Charts"/> it spent seven weeks at the top of the ARIA charts.<ref name="AUS Charts"/> McFarlane opined that it was "one of the most highly anticipated Australian releases in recent years, it was a remarkably assured début, a mix of spirited pop, big rock riffs and adolescent energy."<ref name="McFarlane"/> Jon Azpri of AllMusic rated it as two out of five stars, he felt their first two singles were "catchy pop hits with just enough of a grrl-rock edge to mollify young audiences. The rest of the album is all over the map."<ref name="Azpri Refl">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> By the end of 2001, Reflector had shipped over 280,000 copies in Australia, being certified 4× platinum.<ref name="ARIA Alb01">Template:Cite certification</ref> It provided two further singles: "Live Without It" (April 2000) and "Superman Supergirl" (September).<ref name="AUS Charts"/> The album also charted on the New Zealand Albums Chart at No. 19 with three of its tracks reaching the related singles chart's top 50.<ref name="NZL Charts">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

I think we've got a lot of hard work to put in, in the states. There's a lot of great bands there."<ref name="Worley"/>

From mid-2001 the band's momentum was reduced when a cyst was found on Ella's vocal cords and she underwent throat surgery late that year.<ref name="Mathieson Oct04"/> Her voice was slow to recover, which "destroyed any confidence she had in her voice."<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> In November of the following year she said, "I have a rule – no singing before 10am. Nothing comes out, even if I wanted it to. If I'm on at 10am I have to be up by 8.30am, because it takes a while for my voice to sound human. It's like a croaky 80-year-old lady."<ref name="Holmes"/> The group's official website announced in August 2001 that Wah Wah Music had joined with Sony Music Entertainment Australia for their releases.<ref name="Official SMEA">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The band continued to work on its second studio album,<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> Present (October 2002), which peaked at No. 12.<ref name="AUS Charts"/> It was co-produced by Kosky and Robinson with Andy Baldwyn and issued on Wah Wah Music/Sony Music Australia.<ref name="Angel Fire Present">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> It was certified gold for shipment of 35,000 units in December.<ref name="ARIA Alb02">Template:Cite certification</ref>

Craig Mathieson of The Age saw that Present was "a comparative commercial failure".<ref name="Mathieson Oct04">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Peter Holmes of The Sydney Morning Herald described the album, "a dose of punchy, melodic rock embellished with keyboards, strings, horns, scratching and drum loops. Arguably, however, the highlight is 'Sweet', a sunny semi-acoustic singalong."<ref name="Holmes">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

"Heavensent" (December 2001), the first single from the album, reached the top 30 in early 2002 even though "live promotion for the track was limited" as Ella recovered.<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/><ref name="Rock Detect">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> She had had problems, "I knew they would push me to sing... They told me the whole project couldn't stop for a year. That much time out was not allowed career-wise. I wanted to say, 'Stop. I know we can do this right, but not now.' But then we went and did it anyway."<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> Its second single, "Outside of Me", which reached a peak of No. 12, appeared in September 2002.<ref name="AUS Charts"/> A third song from the album, "Ammyl (Say What You Wanna Say)", was a radio-only release in 2003 – not issued as a physical single.

In 2003 Paul Kosky and the band had an "acrimonious" split;<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> which "almost spelt the end" for the band.<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> According to Mathieson "the band were starting to bristle at the extent of Kosky's involvement in every aspect of their stalled career."<ref name="Mathieson Oct04"/> Kosky felt he was a scapegoat for problems with the second album including its poorer commercial performance: "Everyone was looking for a fall guy. It happened to be me and I left gracefully. I put my life into it for five years and I gambled a lot. Like any relationship, you find a time when you move on."<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> Chris Robinson bought out Kosky's share of their partnership in Wah Wah Music and became the band's new manager.<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/>

Self-titled album (2003–2005)

{{#invoke:Labelled list hatnote|labelledList|Main article|Main articles|Main page|Main pages}} In late 2003 the band spent three months in Los Angeles recording their third studio album, Killing Heidi.<ref name="Murfett Jul04"/> It was produced by John Travis – Mathieson described how "[Travis] proved to be easygoing, and sessions ran much faster because he favoured recording the three instrumentalists playing live and using entire tracks, as opposed to recording each separately and editing together numerous takes to make one technically perfect but often coldly sterile piece."<ref name="Mathieson Oct04"/> Tim Cashmere of Undercover felt it was "a huge step in their sound and [they] returned with an album that can compete on a worldwide scale... [by] a band growing into its full potential and while they're not quite there yet, they've come a long way, baby!"<ref name="Cashmere Sep04">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Its first single, "I Am", was released in July 2004, which entered the charts at No. 16.<ref name="AUS Charts"/> It spent three months in the Top 50 and achieved gold certification.<ref name="AUS Charts"/><ref name="ARIA Sing04">Template:Cite certification</ref> It was used on the Australian version of the feature film soundtrack for Spider-Man 2.<ref name="Holt"/> Matt Holt of Light of the Quasar caught their gig in Traralgon: they were "an effervescent and popular group... their music would be to call it poetically rocking. This band performs stadium rock out songs just as well as ballads."<ref name="Holt">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

In late August 2004 the self-titled album appeared with a less styled and more sonically expressive sound. It had a début at No. 7 on the charts,<ref name="AUS Charts"/> and achieved a gold certification.<ref name="ARIA Alb04">Template:Cite certification</ref> In September 2004, the second single, "Calm Down", was issued, which reached No. 23.<ref name="AUS Charts"/> Early in 2005 a third song, "Running Underwater", was released to radio, but not as a physical single and received little radio airplay. Later in 2005 Killing Heidi left Sony BMG.

Hiatus (2006–2016)

In mid-2006 Killing Heidi's MySpace page described the group as taking a break.Template:Citation needed<ref>As of 2008, the "oh the waiting" blog entry (see below) on the band's MySpace page had been deleted.

oh the waiting... oh the waiting.... ok, hi everyone. Here is the news: We are taking a break from killing heidi for a while but do not see this as a break up! It is us needing to try something else for a little while cos its all we've done for 9 years now. Killing Heidi will be playing some shows in the next 6 months so if you really want to you can get to these shows. I will post the dates as they are confirmed. Ella and Jesse are working on a new as yet unnamed project and will be playing in vic and nsw trying out new material and playing a few oldies too. Pedro is rocking with the very loud and very talented "Monster Truck Extravaganza" (see our top friends for a link to their myspace) so check them out when they start doing shows soon. Hopefully you guys will like what we all get up to over the next little while!!! There have been requests to change the new traks to downloads so i will look into that too!!! Thanks everyone for your continued support, we love playing for you guys and look forward to seeing on the road again soon!!!</ref> In July Andrew Tijs of Undercover.fm News reported that the group had disbanded.<ref name="Tijs">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation

|CitationClass=web }}</ref> The siblings formed a folk duo, the Verses, and started writing and performing new material for that project.<ref name="Tijs"/><ref name="Bond"/> Pedretti formed a heavy metal group, Monster Truck Extravaganza; Jenkin returned to work with Merril Bainbridge as well as "generating electronic music with computers, synthesisers and keyboards."<ref name="Warnock">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

In May 2013 Ella reflected on her time with Killing Heidi and the likelihood of any reunion, "I don't think I could sing such youthful, and youth based songs convincingly any more. It really did just run its natural course and I think it would be very unnatural to start it up again now."<ref name="Bond">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Aside from the Verses, Ella has a career as a solo performer, radio presenter and TV personality.<ref name="Bond"/> Her brother Jesse would go on to a career as a music teacher, producer and community arts developer.<ref name="Dwyer">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Reunion (2016–present)

In September 2016 it was announced that Killing Heidi would be reuniting to play a series of shows to celebrate their 20th anniversary.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> The band would perform at the Handpicked Festival, the Kickstart Summer festival and the Queenscliff Music Festival.<ref name="Killing Heidi re-form for Queenscliff Music Festival 2016">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Although the Hooper siblings and drummer Adam Pedretti participated in the reunion, bassist Warren Jenkin did not. He was replaced by James Gilligan; with the quartet being joined by keyboardist Lena Douglas.

In February 2017, Killing Heidi appeared at Taronga Zoo, Sydney, as part of the annual "Twilight at Taronga" concert series.<ref name="Twilight at Taronga">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> This was followed by a national Australian tour in June.

In early 2020, Killing Heidi took part in the Australian-wide Red Hot Summer Tour as one of the major performers.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
