every month i send music to my friend and one of my once faithful concert buddy. she sadly now lives in a far off land, but our shared love of music has not died out. lately i keep coming across great new finds that i get so ridiculously excited about. (it doesn't take much.) and i just cannot wait to share them with her. this month's artist is Birdy. she's is honest to heavens, incredible.
i discovered her through a collaboration with mumford and sons for the "brave" soundtrack. the song, somehow i managed to love, in spite of the fact that it lacked any vocal accompaniment from the equally incredible and amazing marcus mumford.
when i pandora-d birdy, up came the most beautiful tunes, alongside other great artist such as, ingrid michaelson, florence welch, a fine frenzy, and regina spektor. with comparisons to such ladies as these, i knew birdy was of a certain caliber. and since purchasing her debut, i am nothing but pleased. plus her covers are perfect. i mean, perfect.
