The Bird & The Bee | MP3s & Tour Dates (CMJ, Sia)
The Bird & The Bee are Greg Kurstin and Inara George. “Greg and Inara met a few years ago. Discovered a common love of jazz standards…nerded out for a couple of hours playing every song they knew…and then wrote and recorded a record together.” That record will be released in 2007, but their 1st EP comes out today. It’s four soothing songs total, most of which can be heard on their MySpace. The fourth track is just a remix of one of the other song by Peaches. Big Stereo has that one for download. I think I like the original better. Fluxblog has another MP3 track.
When I first saw that The Bird & The Bee were playing with Keren Ann at Hiro Ballroom on October 31st (ALSO TONIGHT!), I at first confused them for Keren’s side-project called Lady & Bird – don’t make the same mistake. Those who miss the Halloween show have a second CMJ-chance to catch The Bird & The Bee @ Bowery Ballroom on November 1st. Miss that one too? They’re coming back when they go on tour with Sia. That show is on November 21st @ Webster Hall.
