Didirri grew up in the coastal Australian countryside, in the town of Warrnambool. He began writing songs as a challenge to himself. His candid storytelling comes from wanting to face the truth, however beautiful or confronting.

Taking his writing cues from family, philosophers, comedians, friends and lovers, Didirri reveals himself using words and music with unparalleled openness. He compares his songwriting to writing a personal self-help book, littered with advice and observations to avoid repeating mistakes.
