The band's NE dates, before heading to Europe, include two Mercury Lounge shows, first on Friday, April 10th with Lymbyc System (tickets on sale here), then Thursday, April 16th (tickets here). The next night (4/17) The Wooden Birds play Union Hall in Brooklyn (no tickets for that one yet).His latest project is called The Wooden Birds...
The band, recently signed to Barsuk Records, will release its debut, magnolia, on that label in May.
During SXSW, Kenny will also play with The American Analog Set, performing its 1999 record The Golden Band straight through at InSound.com's 10th anniversary party, Friday, March 20th at Club de Ville.

The Wooden Birds were great at SxSW. They sounded great. I saw them twice and it was what I wanted it to be.
