The Bird and the Bee - Put up the Lights (2020) [Hi-Res]

SINCE FORMING IN 2005, The Bird and the Bee have brought a breezy elegance to their music, putting their own idiosyncratic twist on time-bending indie-pop starting with their beloved Again and Again and Again and Again EP followed by 3 original studio albums.

The duo have also mastered the art of the cover song. This mastery can be heard throughout their amazing takes on timeless tracks on 2010’s Interpreting the Masters Volume 1: A Tribute to Daryl Hall and John Oates and 2019’s bombastic Interpreting the Masters Volume 2: A Tribute to Van Halen, both of which garnered critical acclaim.

On October 23rd, The Bird and the Bee release Put Up the Lights, a collection of the duo’s favorite holiday songs alongside new and original compositions, via No Expectation/Release Me Records. With Put Up the Lights, The Bird And The Bee aim to spread holiday cheer by putting their own spin on classics like “Deck The Halls” and “Sleigh Ride” alongside originals like “Merry Merry” and “You and I At Christmas Time”.
