Learn Yourself, released in 2003, was the first full album from the Beautiful Girls, the Sydney roots group founded in 2001 by Mat McHugh, Clay MacDonald and Mitchell Connelly. It came after a pair of 2002 EPs, Morning Sun and Goodtimes, and it caught the trio while they were still an easygoing, sun-warmed proposition.

McHugh, the band's songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist, fills it with loose, unhurried grooves, while MacDonald and Connelly, a rhythm section good enough that Angus & Julia Stone later borrowed them, keep everything swaying. "Black Bird" and "Music" were the songs radio picked up. It was only the start: four more albums followed, and by 2014 the band had toured the world several times over, from Japan and Canada to Brazil and the US.
