Something for Kate kick off their September 2003 live show at the Enmore Theatre with 'Three Dimensions'. This performance captures the raw energy and emotion of one of Australia's most respected alternative bands at the height of their career. 'Three Dimensions' is a solid show opener, benefiting from Paul Dempsey's measured and unshowy vocals, setting a reflective tone from the outset. The performance doesn’t chase momentum, letting space, lyric weight and restraint do the work.

Viewed now, the footage documents a particular strain of early-2000s Australian indie – inward-looking, emotionally precise, and built for close listening.The concert, at Sydney's iconic and intimate Enmore Theatre, was recorded by Channel V while the band were riding high in the wake of their first No. 1 album, The Official Fiction (2003). 'Three Dimensions' was the second single from their breakthrough album Echolalia (2001), which triple j listeners voted the best album of the year.
