Andrew Bird Artist Snapshot:

Multi-talented and classically trained violinist/vocalist/songwriter Andrew Bird began releasing albums in the late 1990s under the name Andrew Bird's Bowl of Fire. While Bird's music looked to a diverse array of styles (including early American jazz, pop, and roots forms), he brought a decidedly avant-garde touch to the proceedings, one best displayed by the dazzling multi-layered sampling/delay techniques he utilized live. Bird's first album for the Fat Possum label, 2007's ARMCHAIR APOCRYPHA (his third proper studio album under just his own name), marked a shift toward a slightly more accessible but no less arresting sound.

Many musicians work at a particular style of music and keep at it until they finally cease. Not the violinist and singer Andrew Bird, however; his music is a savory stew of assorted styles and approaches. THRILLS, for one, has the scope of the Squirrel Nut Zippers (members of which appear here), mixing aspects of swinging jazz, bluegrass, folk, gypsy, rock & roll, New Orleans R&B, and whatever else they feel works. But THRILLS is not a case of everything-but-the-kitchen-sink. Bird and company play with humor (his lyrics are cynical and/or whimsical, depending on one's mood), passion, and devotion.
