After re-uniting for the 20th anniversary of the Queenscliff Music Festival in November 2016, Killing Heidi will tour nationally for the first time in more than a decade.
The rock-pop darlings of the early noughties, it’s been 20 years since triple j unearthed the Hooper siblings as Killing Heidi with their folk-pop song, ‘Kettle’.

The group's debut album, 'Reflector', had two songs place in triple j’s Hottest 100: 'Weir' at #2 and 'Mascara' at #14. 'Reflector' went onto to take out four ARIA awards and reach 4x platinum status.
The Hooper siblings also won the critically-acclaimed APRA songwriters of the year award.

Ella, Jesse and the band are full of their trademark enthusiasm and can’t wait to get back on the road again. "Killing Heidi live was always where it was at for me,” Ella Hooper says.
“I feel we're better than ever now as we've never stopped playing music and we can dial it up to a whole new level. But the essence is the same. It's exciting and emotional for both us and the fans!"
