Andrew Bird Watching

06/05/06
. (CMJ) While the words "hip" and "violinist" aren't often seen alongside one another, Chicago-based balladeer Andrew Bird continues to defy convention by being both. The hip violinist is currently working on his next full-length album, expected sometime next year. Building upon the success of 2005's Mysterious Production Of Eggs, Bird has recruited a number of Midwest musicians, including Haley Bonar and Chris Morrissey, both veterans of the lengthy Mysterious Production Of Eggs tour.... Fans can catch Bird this summer as he hits a handful of major festivals including Kansas's Wakarusa June 10, Tennessee's Bonnaroo June 16 and Milwaukee Summer Fest July 5.
