FROM KATE CEBERANO, STEVE KILBEY AND SEAN SENNETT
September 12, 2019
Celebrated Australian singer songwriters Kate Ceberano, Steve Kilbey and Sean Sennett have revealed the road trip style video for their debut single, ‘Monument City Lights, 1973’.
Directed by Lee and Jason Rogers the clip was shot on some of Australia’s most iconic streets – Oxford Street and Darlinghurst Road, Darlinghurst, Sydney’s Macquarie Street and College Street, Collins Street in Melbourne, and Chapel Street Prahran, amongst many others!
Steve Kilbey sums up the video beautifully, saying, “Monument City Lights, 1973 is me and Sean hanging out on the mean streets of any-town with Kate Ceberano. We put our foot to the floor and we hightail it outta there before sunrise. But we always return to the same night. And it begins all over again…”
Watch ‘Monument City Lights, 1973’
‘Monument City Lights, 1973’ is a unique collaboration between Kate Ceberano, Steve Kilbey and Sean Sennett. Recorded in studios between Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, the song is helmed by a classic bass line, chiming guitars, an ice-cold drum sound and a wonderful opening gambit as Ceberano and Kilbey trade lead lines.
As epic as the title suggests, Monument City Lights, 1973 recalls Bowie’s Berlin years mixed with the mood of a David Lynch film.
The song began life with Sennett and Kilbey writing together in a cramped beach side apartment. Ceberano added her songwriting gift and Monument City Lights, 1973 came to life.

The trio have been working on an as yet unnamed album – standby for more!
