One of the most exciting live bands in the UK, British Birds combine the garage-punk energy of Billy Childish, the wry English sophistication of XTC and the witty pop inventiveness of The Lovely Eggs.
Forged from a fireless market town with Tolkien-esque hills and Lowry style mills, British Birds straddle the landscape of Northern life through their colourful garage rock song, like a dawn chorus in an apocalyptic smog. Stories of personal experience and 'the everyday' flow through their songs like the nearby canal networks. Hues of psychedelia tint their music like the confusion of modern day life, with a sombering melancholy seeping from its pores like a quintessential Northern drizzle, and their pop heartbeat thumping on like the industrial hammers.
The band has toured with BC Camplight, The Lovely Eggs and The Bug Club, and have self-released two albums and an EP; In Search Of Mr Rykyn (February 2024), Sucking Funny EP (August 2024) and Silence Daedalus (June 2025).
Their first album for Skep Wax Records, Murmurate, Oscillate, will be released on 16th October 2026.
