Editing Jebediah (section)

===2011–present: Reunion, ''Kosciuszko'' and ''Oiks''===
Jebediah returned to the studio in 2010 to rehearse old material and write more music for their fifth studio album, ''[[Kosciuszko (album)|Kosciuszko]]'', which appeared on 15 April 2011 on the [[Dew Process]] label.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://dew-process.com/news/detail/index_html?content_id=78861|title=Jebediah sign to Dew Process!|date=7 October 2010|publisher=dew-process.com|access-date=30 August 2011|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110301085353/http://www.dew-process.com/news/detail/index_html?content_id=78861|archive-date=1 March 2011}}</ref> Due to Kevin's other musical commitments, recording for the album had occurred sporadically since early 2008.<ref name="Shedden"/> ''Kosciuszko'' was produced by the group members, who created it without any time constraints. Brett explained in a 2011 interview:

<blockquote>
The best thing for us was the freedom we had to make it. We had all the time we wanted on it. With Kevin being in Melbourne we'd take a week here and there and we could work and shape the songs more with that freedom and time ... there were periods where, for example, Kevin was the only one in the studio with the rest of us all working or doing whatever.<ref name="Strange" /></blockquote>

According to Brett Mitchell, all four band members were satisfied with the outcome of the recording sessions and it was "a more unanimous feeling than it has been in the past."<ref name="Strange">{{cite web|title=Jebediah – We're Not Radiohead, We're Just Us! | url = http://musicfeeds.com.au/features/jebediah-were-not-radiohead-were-just-us/ |work=Music Feeds|access-date=8 October 2013|first = Jason | last = Strange|date=5 April 2011}}</ref> Kevin also reflected on making the album:

<blockquote>
It's a very different record for us and I'm really excited about it. It's the first real "studio" album we have ever made. Every other album has been recorded quite traditionally. We write a bunch of songs, play them live a bunch of times and then go in to studio and bash them out in a few weeks. This time round we had barely played the songs live, we wrote a few of them in the studio and we really used the studio as an instrument.<ref name=Gerace>{{cite web|last=Gerace|first=Adam|title=Why didn't they ask Evans?|url=http://www.adamgerace.com/2014/01/04/why-didnt-they-ask-evans/|work=AdamGerace.com|date=4 January 2014 |access-date=21 January 2014}}</ref></blockquote>

The album debuted at number&nbsp;six and stayed in the top&nbsp;50 for five&nbsp;weeks.<ref name=discog/> Richard Kingsmill premiered the lead single, "Lost My Nerve", on his Triple J music show on 17 October 2010. The second single, "[[She's Like a Comet]]", was released in January 2011, with an accompanying music video, and became the most added single to radio airplay. "She's Like a Comet" peaked at number&nbsp;four on the ARIA Australian Artists Singles Chart,<ref name="ARIA Rep 30May2011">{{cite web | date = 30 May 2011 | title = The ARIA Report | publisher = [[Australian Recording Industry Association]] (ARIA) | issue = 1178 | url = http://www.aria.com.au/Issue1109.pdf | archive-url = https://webarchive.nla.gov.au/awa/20110629140000/http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/23790/20110630-0000/Issue1109.pdf | url-status = dead | archive-date = 2011-06-29 | page = 15 | access-date = 2 June 2014 }}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref><ref name="Clarke">{{cite news | url = http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/music/jebediah-20-finally-hits-the-mainstream-20110415-1dhfq.html | title = Jebediah 2.0 Finally Hits the Mainstream | last1 = Clarke | first1 = Jenna | date = 18 April 2011 | newspaper = [[The Sydney Morning Herald]] | publisher = [[Fairfax Media]] | access-date = 4 August 2011 }}</ref> number&nbsp;47 on the ARIA Singles Chart,<ref name=discog/> and reached number&nbsp;29 on the [[Australian Music Report]] Top&nbsp;100 Airplay Chart.<ref>{{Cite web | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110306120212/http://www.aumreport.com/amr100.html | url = http://www.aumreport.com/amr100.html | title = Top 100 Singles Chart: For the Week: February 25 – March 3, 2011 | publisher = [[Australian Music Report]] | archive-date = 6 March 2011 | date = 3 March 2011 | access-date = 2 June 2014 }}</ref>

The group toured nationally to promote the album throughout the remainder of 2011, playing at the [[Splendour in the Grass]] festival and then visiting regional locations from [[Broome, Western Australia|Broome]] to [[Mount Hotham]].<ref>{{cite web | title = Jebediah 2011 November Tour Dates | url = http://musicfeeds.com.au/news/jebediah-2011-november-tour-dates/ | publisher = Music Feeds | access-date = 8 October 2013 | first = John | last = Ritchie | date = 29 September 2011 }}</ref> They also performed at the National Youth Week 2011 launch event in Melbourne<ref>{{cite web|title=Jebediah: Behind The Scenes @ National Youth Week 2011|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OU5tybmIGno |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211222/OU5tybmIGno |archive-date=2021-12-22 |url-status=live|work=YouTube|publisher=Google, Inc|access-date=8 October 2013|author=JebediahMusic|format=Video upload|date=11 April 2011}}{{cbignore}}</ref> and appeared on morning TV program, ''[[Sunrise (Australian TV program)|Sunrise]]'', to perform "She's Like a Comet".<ref name="Shedden"/> Matt Hogan of ''X-Press'' magazine attributed the success of the fifth album to Kevin's solo work as Bob Evans, and as a member of the Basement Birds.<ref name="Clarke"/>

On 13 April 2011, the band uploaded a 13-minute [[documentary film]] onto [[YouTube]], ''Welcome to Kosciuszko'', which was released in conjunction with Dew Process and filmed by an Australian-based [[production company]], The Grindhouse ([[Film director|directed]] by Brent Quincy Buchanan and filmed by Harry Joaquin Charnock). It relates the band's history, featuring interviews with all four members.<ref name="Brent">{{cite web|title=Jebediah – Welcome to KOSCIUSZKO: The Story|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=le3yF2xO74s&list=PL4D0E77D8E91E3760&index=0&feature=plcp  |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211222/le3yF2xO74s |archive-date=2021-12-22 |url-status=live| work = YouTube | publisher = Google, Inc.

Released following the band's hiatus, the documentary serves as both a re-introduction of the band to the public arena, but also a reflection upon the past. Thornton described her perspective:

<blockquote>
We were so caught up in our own wild ride that we were being swept along doing what we were doing, and, I mean, at the time, we were meeting all these bands that we idolised and, and, were big fans of ... and, um, got to play gigs with them all ... The first tour we went on, then led into the next tour and, before we knew it, we were on the road to pretty much ten years solid.<ref name="Brent" /></blockquote>

Kevin explained:

<blockquote>
We didn't really have aspirations to make records at that point, when we first started out; it was all about playing live, really. You know, enjoying each other's company, and writing songs, and gettin' stoned, partying and having fun ... Once we started, which was 1996, we didn't really stop until 2005. And, yeah, like I said, we were proud of how much we toured. We were-it was a badge of honour to play as much as possible.<ref name="Brent" /></blockquote>

Daymond reflected:

<blockquote>
Without, sort of, having to organise it too much, we were all committed to the band to see how far it would go; and I think everyone was really happy with where it ended up taking us ... We were 17 when we started touring, um ... it was really awesome to be involved with a label like Murmur as well—Murmur had a lot of really cool bands on the roster; I mean, just getting invited to see a Silverchair gig, or something like that, was really exciting.<ref name="Brent" /></blockquote>

The band's perspective on the Murmur label is further elucidated; Thornton states: "There's no way we would've done what we did if Murmur wasn't our label",<ref name="Brent" /> while Brett explained: "Because even though they were part of a much bigger company [Sony], um, we were shielded from a lot of that".<ref name="Brent" />

On 28 September 2012 Jebediah performed at the Rock Lily venue, part of the [[The Star, Sydney|Star Casino]] complex in Sydney with The Sculptures and Conrad Greenleaf as their support acts.<ref>{{cite web | title = Jebediah @ Rock Lily | url = http://www.pull-itt.com/jebediah-@-rock-lily_c111784.aspx | publisher = Pull-Itt | access-date = 29 September 2012 | date = September 2012 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140606233451/http://www.pull-itt.com/jebediah-@-rock-lily_c111784.aspx | archive-date = 6 June 2014 | url-status = dead | df = dmy-all }}</ref> On 24 November they played at the Super Saturday horse racing event at the [[Ascot Racecourse (Western Australia)|Ascot Raceway]], Perth.<ref>{{cite news | title = Champagne flows on Super Saturday | url = http://www.smh.com.au/wa-news/champagne-flows-on-super-saturday-20121126-2a28l.html | access-date = 30 November 2012 | newspaper = The Sydney Morning Herald | publisher = Fairfax Media | date = 26 November 2012 | first = Jillian | last = McHugh}}</ref>

In January 2013 on web-based publication, ''Tone Deaf'', Kevin described the songwriting process with his "best mates" as "a real democratic process, it's like trying to pass legislation".<ref name="Tone"/> Kevin elaborated on the future of the group in March while promoting his fourth solo (Bob Evans) album: "I don't know, I like to think there will be [more to come]. I'd love to make another Jebediah record but at this stage we haven't even got together or started writing or anything yet so it's too far away to really be able to tell".<ref>{{cite web|title=Bob Evans (15/03/2013)|url=http://www.the59thsound.com/bob-evans-15032013.html|work=The 59th Sound|access-date=21 March 2013|author=Rebecca Costanzo|date=15 March 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130324053243/http://www.the59thsound.com/bob-evans-15032013.html|archive-date=24 March 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>

In March 2015 Jebediah announced that they would be undertaking a 20th Anniversary tour in June that year, performing fan favourites and surprises in the first set, then their 1997 debut album ''[[Slightly Odway]]'' in its entirety. To coincide with the tour they announced that they would be releasing a new compilation album, ''[[Twenty (Jebediah album)|Twenty]]'', on 29 May.

In September 2023, Jebediah released "Gum Up the Bearings", their first new single in over a decade.<ref name=GutB/> That same month, it was announced that the band would be inducted into the [[Western Australian Music Industry Awards|WAM Hall of Fame]] that November.<ref name=GutB>{{cite web | url=https://themusic.com.au/news/jebediah-return-with-first-new-music-in-12-years/bCfSfmFgY2I/20-09-23 |title= Jebediah Return With First New Music In 12 Years | website=[[The Music (magazine)|The Music]]|date=20 September 2023|access-date= 22 September 2023|author= Ellie Robinson}}</ref> Following a national tour in support of "Gum Up the Bearings", the band announced their sixth studio album ''OIKS''.
