This is the third album by Ben Vida under his Bird Show moniker following his "Lightning Ghost" album from 2006 on Kranky. Bird Show is an active member of a whole host of experimental bands including Town and Country, Pillow, Central Falls, Terminal 4 and Everyoned. As Bird Show he truly taps into the US free-folk psyche movement which has been gaining a lot of deserved praise and attention in recent years. His new album, which is untitled, contains a whole host of instruments including: Hammond XB-2, microKorg, Moog Voyager, Gibson SG, Berinbau, Shona Mbira, Slit Drum, Pan Pipes, Shakers, Vietnamese Jaw Harp, Tambourines, Ride Cymbal, Congas, Wood Flute, Ring Modulator, Elephant Bells, Violin, Qraqeb, Zither, Voice, Ten String Harp, Frame Drum, Finger Cymbals, Triangle.... to name just a few. It is his ability to fuse together all of these different sounds which makes Bird Show such a unique artist and which makes his new album such essential listening.
