 | | The simple truth is this: Andrew Bird creates sounds on his own terms, and as far-ranging as his various incarnations may appear, they are remarkably consistent when it comes to clarity of purpose, craftsmanship, wit, and sheer audience appeal. |
 | | Whether his subject matter is love, loneliness, or topics a little more slippery, a typical Bird song (if there is any such thing) demands your attention from the first moment you hear it, and rewards you with sheer sonic bliss. |
 | | Andrew Bird was born in Chicago, a town where blues, jazz, post-rock, alt country and other genres have long rubbed shoulders. |
