  • Description

    Injured Birds emerge from Nottingham's flourishing Indie-Folk scene. It's a scene bursting at the seams with talented contemporaries such as Jake Bugg, Dog Is Dead and Natalie Duncan, all of whom - alongside Injured Birds - are set to release music in the coming Autumn months. Nottingham is fast approaching its time to make a mark as a key UK musical and creative hotspot. The sound of Injured Birds, however, could easily have been born from a wood cabin in the darkest, deepest American forest. Perhaps a very welcome result of Injured Birds recent days on the road touring the U.S.A's Midwestern highways and venues. While comparisons seem wrong when Injured Birds are offering something of a unique sound, it can't be ignored that they share a little something of Bon Iver's earthy, fragile beauty. In both frontman Samual Kirk's forlorn lyricism and heartbreaking falsetto vocal, the latter having been described by James Yuill as a "beautiful sonic syrup". The music too is one of simplistic heart-wrenching strings, harmonium piano and adept acoustic guitar plucking.
