The indie folk ensemble Brown Bird initially formed as a vehicle for lead vocalist and songwriter David Lamb. In 2003, having lived briefly in Seattle, Lamb moved east to Portland, ME, where he started working on a handful of folk tunes that compared favorably to the spare, rough-hewn work of artists like Bonnie "Prince" Billy and Iron and Wine. Lamb's friends, Jerusha and Jeremy Robinson, were soon brought on board to round out Brown Bird's sound, and the trio self-released their debut full-length, Tautolougy, in 2006. The band self-released one more disc, Such Unrest, the following year before they were picked up by Portland, ME's Peapod Recordings. Their first album on that label, The Bottom of the Sea, came out in 2008; Lamb undertook a solo tour of the U.S. in support of that release soon after. While he was on the road, Lamb made the acquaintance of the Rhode Island-based multi-instrumentalists Morgan Eve Swain and Mike Samos, who ended up playing in support of Lamb for a couple of his solo shows. Swain and Samos were brought on board as full-fledged members of Brown Bird before the year came to a close. Brown Bird's fourth studio album, The Devil Dancing, was released in November of the following year. ~ Margaret Reges, Rovi
For reference, Morgan doesn't just play double bass and sing backup as most bios say...she also plays fiddle, cello, and electric bass during their sets. Outstanding is an understatement.
They're great live. Salt for salt is my favorite album, but they were playing some songs on their tour for their next album, pretty killer! Devil Dancing is good too, definitely worthy of discography. They are great people, met em' couple times, really chill. Morgan Eve is even a little shy still. Dave's kick a**.
An amazing band. Yes, see them live! They are also awesome people. Weird, though, that they don't have The Devil Dancing in the selected discography--it's an awesome album.
