ANDREW BIRD | NOBLE BEASTS

FAT POSSUM

Noble Beasts, the latest release from Andrew Bird, is sparer than the distorted guitars and baroque feel of his previous release Armchair Apocrypha. The new album revisits some of Bird’s previous acoustic based themes that have influenced his gypsy, jazz and traditional folk infused work, mixing broad flowing arrangements with rock. His years of solo song-craft enabled him to produce a sound that is uniquely his own.
