Nine Lime Avenue is a studio album by Australian recording artist, Kate Ceberano. The album consists entirely of cover versions. The album was released in April 2007 and peaked at number 4 on the ARIA Charts.
Commencing in February 2007, Ceberano competed in series 6 of Dancing with the Stars Australia, (which Ceberano would go on to win). The album was recorded whilst she was competing in this series, in just three weeks.[1]
The record is a homage to her favourite songs of the 80's. Every song has been reinvented to mould the Kate Ceberano style.[2] Ceberano said of the album, "I grew up on Lime Avenue and spent all my teenage years through the 80's listening to different music and firing up my lust for a career in music. I'm so nostalgic about that period of my life and in many ways wished we still had that house… this album I guess is a collection of different songs connected to different memories from that time"[3]
