Armed with infectious songs full of love and wonder, Manchester based musical duo Bird to Beast are psych-folk duo spinning magic from the sounds of yesteryear to create something fresh and unique.
Bird to Beast is the brainchild of recently married couple, Sam and Hannah Hird - but they didn't start writing music together until after they wed! After a chance meeting at their hometown's annual blues festival they fell in love through music, before deciding to start writing together.
Timeless melodies and soaring harmonies tip a hat to the pop nous of greats like The Beach Boys, Kate Bush and The Beatles as well as contemporary singer-songwriters like Rufus Wainwright and James Mercer.
Bird to Beast's debut album in 2013 was voted the best of the year by Manchester Evening News, they've been interviewed by Maconie and Radcliffe on BBC 6 Music and they now have a host of very successful festival performances under their belts.
Their second album will be released in autumn 2015.
"Beautiful, soaring harmonies that worked perfectly in the venue and charmed the whole audience" - Amy Clewes (Director, Royal Exchange Theatre and Manchester International Festival)
