Bluebyrd are a modern folk duo based in the West Midlands. We formed in 2017 and feature Chris Rowley on guitar and vocals and Gareth Pask on keyboards.
“If you like original music that’s from the heart, delivered with energy and passion then we’re the band for you! Although our music is rooted in the folk tradition with a love of Dylan, Paul Simon and Nick Drake ever present in our sound, we have been described as alternative-folk and even urban folk, with keen-eared listeners hearing the likes of Elvis Costello, Johnny Cash, REM, The Waterboys and even some of those edgy new wave acts from the late 70s in our work. Our songs navigate the modern urban landscape, that strikes a chord with the audience. From our up tempo stompers to our reflective laments, we aim to keep hearts a flutter and feet a tapping”
