Be sure to catch Felicity Urquhart and Josh Cunningham (of The Waifs) live on their ‘Birdsong’ Tour.
Their new album Birdsong is a 10-track celebration about conquering the cage and finding your voice. In the tradition of Alison Krauss and Robert Plant, the pair soar like birds on a wing and their song is glorious. Venturing beyond the minimal, intimate acoustic stylings of their ARIA-nominated debut album (The Song Club), Birdsong adds more meat on the bone. Electric guitars can be heard throughout, along with an eclectic array of obscure, small stringed instruments. Award winning Matt Fell lends his considerable talents to the project, proving a perfect choice as co-producer and musician.
Sweeping the 52nd Golden Guitar Awards in both nominations and top category wins, the duo took home Traditional Country Album of the Year for Birdsong, and album track “Size Up” was awarded Song of the Year and Single of the Year.
