Andrew Bird

In May 2016, Andrew Bird delivered a mesmerizing live performance of "Roma Fade" at the KEXP studio, a part of his extensive tour following the release of his album "Things Are Really Great Here, Sort Of...". This album was actually a collaborative project with the band "The Hands of Glory" and showcased Bird's signature blend of folk, rock, and classical influences. By this period in his career, Bird had already established himself as a multi-instrumentalist and lyrical innovator, captivating audiences with his unique sound. What’s cool is that Bird had a knack for creating lush, vibrant soundscapes using just his violin and loops, which he demonstrated perfectly in this live session. It’s worth noting that Bird’s live recordings often reflect his ability to connect deeply with his audience, transforming intimate studio performances into something truly magical.
