This just in: a poster created for the two upcoming Michigan shows (see you there?). Designed by our friends over at Doe Eyed, this limited edition run of 100 silk-screened posters will be available at the Traverse City and Grand Rapids dates. Check the archives: andrewbird.net/store/posters

Can you guess which 'Break It Yourself' tune inspired this print?

Strumming Along With Musician Andrew Bird 

Once upon a time (the mid 90s) in a gloriously music-laden land (Chicago), a lanky, sharp-witted, sharp-featured tenderfoot (Andrew Bird) graduated from Northwestern’s acclaimed music conservatory and dove into the sea of indie rock. Inhabited by hard-edged musicians who took pride in their lack of skill and almost-affected amateurishness, it was about passion — forget technique. Live shows were supposed to be truly live, and in-concert mistakes were nothing less than standard. “Experience the sound in its raw, unadulterated form,” they’d say. And Bird — despite his “super-trained” background — fit right in, rolling with the sonic tides to the eventual mid-ocean calm of celebrated musician status.
