Spring Board: The Early Unrecorded Songs is Martin Phillipps’ poignant farewell—an intimate reimagining of his earliest unreleased work. Finalised with support from his band, family, and friends, the album reflects on Phillipps’ journey from cult beginnings to indie icon. Deeply personal and emotionally rich, Spring Board captures the hopes, fears, and brilliance of a singular songwriter revisiting the roots of The Chills. Featuring contributions from Neil Finn, Julia Deans, Hollie Fullbrook and more, it’s a powerful final chapter in Phillipps’ extraordinary legacy.
