Britt Fest
– July16 – support has been added to this show courtesy of the Portland Cello Project

Mark your calendars for July 7 when you can watch Andrew and band on the Tonight show with Conan O’Brien, one of my personal favorite redheads. They will be performing “Oh No” for your enjoyment! Tune in to NBC Tuesday, 10:35 CDT / 11:35 EDT.

Tickets are selling very fast for the LA show at the Greek Theater on July 10… it’s a triple bill whammy of Heartless Bastards, Ra Ra Riot and Mr. Bird, so get there early to catch both amazing support bands.

Last but not least, please enjoy this interview of Andrew by music journalist Evelyn Llewelyn:

Andrew Bird Newsletter - May 8 Edition

Hey Everybody -
Nice to meet all the new subscribers to the list, Hello!
Some news from around the world for you:
MILAN - the show sold out so quickly that we decided to move it to a larger room, to the Musicdrome... All tickets for the show at La Casa will be honored there. Sorry for any inconvenience!
LISBON - We have also added another show in Lisbon for May 24. Just like the show on May 25, it will be at Cinema Sao Jorge. Same venue, same start time, simple enough, right?
LONDON - show is a few tickets from being sold out, don't wait too long to get your tickets or you'll be disappointed! Snowbird, a new band from Simon Raymonde and Stephanie Dosen have been added to the bill for the short set at the beginning of the night, so be sure and come early. Cortney Tidwell is main support. You can listen to Andrew live on the George Lamb show on BBC6 for a chat and a few songs... he'll be on at approximately 11:30AM London time. Those of us outside of the UK can also stream the interview and performance here.
LOS ANGELES - Remember the July 10th Los Angeles show we announced back in mid-March? Well, the time is finally upon us: Pre-sale tickets for this concert - now with Ra Ra Riot and Heartless Bastards - will go on sale beginning Tuesday, May 12 at 10am here. Tickets go on sale to the general public Saturday, May 16.
LAKE TAHOE - Speaking of California - Andrew will be taking part in the inaugural Wanderlust Festival in Lake Tahoe on Sunday, July 26. The festival is a music / yoga / nature experience, happening July 24-26. Also performing: Spoon, Broken Social Scene, Mates of State, Gillian Welch, Jenny Lewis, Kaki King, and many more ! More information can be found here.
EVERYWHERE - For anyone who caught This American Life's recent live-broadcast-to-movie-theater event, you were treated to "Quimby the Mouse", a wonderful animation by Chris Ware, featuring the song "Eugene" from Andrew's 1998 record "Thrills" - For those of you who missed out on the TAL event, you can still check out "Quimby the Mouse" here.
CHICAGO - In news unrelated to all things Bird (but truly representative of some sweet, sweet Summer-y weather + a great cause ! ) - On Saturday, May 9, Climate Cycle - a Chicago-based organization devoted to raising funds to fight global warming - will be holding their inaugural bike-a-thon. Money raised will be used to put solar panels on local public schools and support green energy education. For more information: climatecycle.org
If everyone on this mailing list just donated a dollar we could really make a difference!

Andrew Bird Newsletter - February 27 Edition

Hey Friends, greetings and salutations!
We have a new video (!), some new show announcements, a new radio session to listen to, and probably something else that I just can't think of right now...
Firstly: the FITZ AND THE DIZZYSPELLS video, directed by Digitelio and featuring the Mucca Pazza marching band, is now posted exclusively for a first look today at MySpace. Share the joy and send it to your friends!
We have added some solo shows to the European tour, and there are a few more to come:

May 16
Geneva, Switzerland
Usine - tickets

May 17
Zurich, Switzerland
Rote Fabrik - tickets
Andrew is also confirmed to play the Primavera Festival in Barcelona, Spain May 28-30.
And then in June - behold!

June 8
Columbia, MD
Merriweather Post Pavilion supporting: the Decemberists
pre-sale tickets
Also in June - save these dates, as we will soon be announcing huge awesome headline shows for Andrew in the following cities: Atlanta on 6/15, Philadelphia on 6/17, New York on 6/18, and Boston on 6/19... so put a big heart on your calendar for those days and stay tuned.

How 'bout a contest!? Guess the venue in each of the above cities that Andrew will be playing, and e-mail andrewbirdcontest@gmail.com with the CITY and VENUE in the subject line. Out of all the correct guesses for each show I will randomly pick one winner to receive a free pair of tickets to that show.
Andrew and band stopped by KMTT's Music Lounge earlier this week to play a session for the good citizens of Seattle - listen to acoustic versions of "Fitz and the Dizzyspells", "Imitosis", "Effigy", and an interview here.
Last but not least, we're looking for some lovely street teamers in Germany and France to help promote Andrew's upcoming shows there - sign up here and we will be in touch!
Thanks as always for reading! So great to get all the amazing response to the shows lately, and a big thanks for listening to the music and spreading the word - it really makes a difference. Now go out there and have a fabulous weekend, I intend to!
Best,
Andrea
