Introducing Birdvox and their debut album Shamming The Drama. Twelve big-skysongs of joy, rage, connection, grief, empowerment, the natural world, and peace forthe times we’re in. Political disco; skewed-folk floor fillers; avian electronica; hymns tohumanity… the honest and cathartic noise of the multi-tasking artist-producers whomade this record, equally and collectively.Birdvox is Sarah Hayes (vocals, synth, flute, drum programming), a founding memberof Glasgow’s beloved Admiral Fallow; Inge Thomson (vocals, accordion, fieldrecordings, drum programming), a longtime collaborator with the multi-award-winningsongwriter and storyteller Karine Polwart; Jenny Sturgeon (vocals, guitars,keyboards, drum programming), a SAY Award-nominated solo artist, and singer withalt-folk mainstays Salt House; and Charlotte Printer (vocals, bass, percussion, drumprogramming) who’s previously performed with revived Scottish pop icons AlteredImages, and Loyle Carner-collaborator Joesef.The album was produced by Birdvox and Peter Brewis of Prince-favourites FieldMusic.Singing in Scots, Shetland dialect, old Norn and English, Birdvox distil their individualinfluences into a unique musical point of view and a joyful live experience.“Perhaps the standout event of the whole festival… exciting and energetic… atthe intersection of boundary-pushing art and extremely listenable, melody-basedpop”
