From the venue:
Blending the artful folky obscurity of Andrew Bird with the slanting emotional resonance of Bon Iver, Raleigh, N.C., duo Bowerbirds has released three enchanting full-lengths, the latest of which is titled The Clearing. The record is a step upward for the group in sound and scope, while the lyricism is a bold continuation of the naturalistic poetry the band set in motion with its earliest work. Bowerbirds are warm, humanist, and sincere — adjectives far too frequently inapt in music.
