Andrew Bird featured in The New York Times
Andrew Bird is featured in The New York Times, published January 2, 2009. Here is an excerpt from Andrew Bird Discovers His Inner Operatic Folkie:
"Onstage, Bird was engaged in something of a musical high-wire act, whistling, singing and manically shifting from violin to guitar to glockenspiel. All the while, his feet were busy working the pedals of an electronic looping station that recorded and then played back his musical progressions in short intervals. He layered one musical passage on top of another, gradually nudging each song toward its crescendo."
This is what we have to look forward to come Andrew Bird's appearance on Valentine's Day on our stage. It's wonderful to see such a thorough profile of this amazing musician in The New York Times. We hope it successfully fuels your anticipation of his sure-to-be inspiring live performance on Saturday, February 14 as much as it does so for us.
Reserved Tickets are available here.
