Listen to new Wooden Birds

the Wooden Birds ::: Larimer Lounge ::: 10.21.09

The Wooden Birds caught me by surprise when they opened up for Great Lake Swimmers last time they swung by Denver in 2009. From the ashes of American Analog Set and Broken Social Scene affiliated, comes the Austin group with their new album,”Two Matchsticks,” out 06/07 via Barsuk. And what Barsuk release wouldn’t be complete without the participation of Ben Gibbard? Mr. DCFC lends his vocals, along with members of Ola Podrida, Matt Pond and Leslie Sisson. You can check out their performance of unreleased material on UT campus radio, KUT and their new single on MTVHive titled, “Two Matchsticks .”
