Minor Birds.
Joel & I have finally started working on a new project.
Using only Keys & Upright Bass (and eventually, the occasional classical guitar or violin)..I'm hoping the sound will be pretty epic.

We just put a myspace together yesterday, so it's a bit sketchy...
but I'd still love for everyone to take a listen & tell us your thoughts.

(adding us is nice as well.... )
Click - Minor Birds.

We just got back from playing our first show as Minor Birds... It went rather well. We opened for Karma, a solo singer/songwriter from South Africa. She was very good and I'd like to think we were too... All in all it was a good night.

Eep. We haven't posted anything in a bit.
We've been playing some rad shows lately with some rad kids.

We're working on recording an EP, and I'm doing a lot of doodling for Merch.

Stickerrrrs!

Really simple instumentation, but still really intense. I really like this. A lot, actually.

Please note: If you are listening through factory speakers, you will probably NOT hear the bass.

Oh my.
Some quite older videos we never got around to posting.
I have to admit there are some embarassing parts (due to my stool being broken and not playing standing for over a year)...but enjoy all the same.

Minor Birds - "Hallelujah" Leonard Cohen Cover.
