“Bird Radio is a singer and multi-instrumentalist described as ‘folk-horror of the darkest hue’ (fRoots) and a ‘flute-toting, bass drum-beating sensation’ (Evening Standard). He presents his solo show ‘The Boy and the Audience’ which was selected by The Student Newspaper as their Edinburgh Fringe Festival Favourite Show in 2017. Bird Radio gives a powerful performance of songs and stories about dreams, memory and the imagination accompanied by live looping, flute, guitar and more, featuring songs from his first two albums as well as pieces from his new album, due for release in 2018.
