Bowerbirds are a folk music from North Carolina. Their debut album Hymns for a Dark Horse was released last year. I thought the name was interesting considering there is a Melbourne band with the same name. The Melbourne birds are a rock band while these three are gypsy-folk and all with surreal lyrics, marching band beats and accordions.
This is a new band and it can be heard clearly on the record. The takes are raw and it genuinely sounds like three people playing in a room…which is a good thing. Highlights are Bur Oak and Olive Hearts.
