Feast of Hammers/The Sailor’s Wife single out NOW

Dearest Birds,

The second single ‘Feast of Hammers’ is out NOW. You can get it via all good online digital retailers Itunes, Bandcamp, and Amazon but if you really want to help support us directly please purchase it directly from our website, we have it available on both CD and DOWNLOAD. Only 100 copies of the CDs were made and we won’t be making anymore so if you’d like a copy grab one now!

We would like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone involved in it’s creation: Jason Rubal from Seventh Wave Studios for the fantastic production and being such a pleasure to work with, we had so much fun making this track and can’t wait for the rest of the album to come out! We would also like to thank Dominic Stoate, Tom Marcham and Kelly Mariot for helping us create a stunning music video for this track. Watch the censored/uncencored/alternative ending up on youtube now! Also thanks to Sam Steele for the beautiful cover art, you can view all his other work here.

If you like what you hear, please share this with friends and family and help support independant, unsigned musicians like us… we promise to spend the money on making more music and videos for YOU. Thank you.

Love, Birdeatsbaby x

PS – We’re on Juice FM tonight with Tony Marks at 8.15pm, be sure to listen in HERE. J’adores it.

News from The Nest – November 2011

Dearest Birds,

I hope you all had a very happy Halloween! We have been ridicuolously busy at The Nest, running around the country and of course our first show-dates in Ireland! November promises to be a very busy month too…

Ireland was awesome, thank you to all who came down to the shows and made them so memorable for us. Belfast – you were rowdy, drunk and loud, we liked it. Dublin you were… not so loud but exceptionally well dressed, with some AMAZING costumes!

A special thank you to everyone who lent us equipment, gave us somewhere to sleep and fed us :) Stephen Jack (who also made all our costumes for the Feast of Hammers video),  Elder Roche (I have massive piano envy), Sons of Robert Mitchum, the Keely McDonald clan, Cooper & Mariska and Iarla. THANK YOU X X X

Here are some of our favorite pics from the shows/after-parties…
