The more I read about human behaviours and traits, the more I believe that it's all in the genes...
Recently I posted a music video by Luke Steele who had teamed up with Nick Littlemore from PNAU to form Empire of the Sun, and I raved about how much I loved the song. I first heard about Luke from his band the Sleepy Jacksons whose albums I have and love. Luke has a sister, Katy Steele, who is in another great Ausie band, "Little Birdy", whose albums I also own and love. Little Birdy has just realeased a new song (and will release a new album soon I presume) called 'Brother'. I can't tell you how much I adore this song, and it features the one and only Paul Kelly too.
This video was filmed on a DIY video camera one day in Katy's bedroom.
So much talent in one family - it's all in the genes I tell you!

Hi Nina
Hows things? I agree about this song and about Little Birdy and about The Sleepy Jackson. Not entirely sure that a sample set size of one is considcered large enough for scientific proof of a concept, but what the heck, I'll go with it too. It must be all in the genes.
Ah but Steve, I can name more than one sample size. We have:
Angus and Julia Stone.
Mark and Nick Seymour.
Neil and Tim Finn and Liam Finn.
The Kings of Leon are 3 brothers and a cousin.
Dido is the sister of the guy from Faithless.
Rufus and Martha Wainwright children of Loudon.
George were a brother/sister band, children of an Australian Opera singer.
Dan Kelly is the nephew of Paul Kelly.
The Waifs - two sisters.
INXS - had the Farriss brothers.
The Bee Gees.
Jeff Buckley son of Tim.
Kyle Minogue and Danni Minogue....ok maybe I should stop there!
I reckon I could find more too!
I love your work Nina!
