BIIRD are a brand new 11-piece superstar collective made up of Ireland's best traditional Irish musicians and singers. Breaking the mould by teaming up with Ireland's most disruptive and creative designers/stylists BIIRD are here to update the image and narrative of trad music across the globe.
After appearing for the first time at Trafalgar Square, London on March 17th last month, as part of the Paddy's Day celebrations, the group went on to announce and sell-out their debut headline show (May 25th, London Irish Centre). They have also been announced as headliners for Belfast Trad Festival, playing Mandela Hall July 27th and are soon announcing their prime time slot at All Together Now, Saturday 3rd August.
Collaborations with Kate Nash, Annie Mac, Imelda May and MuniLong are confirmed for their debut album, which they start recording next month.
Their own instagram page is just 3 weeks old but has already gained 3.5k followers and counting fast. The collective includes viral sensations ABSOLUTE LILT, who have reached 500k followers and 53million views in the last year on TikTok and Instagram. ABSOLUTE LILT will feature in the KNEECAP movie, have an album ready to release and another in the making produced by Toddla T.
This group of musicians have a lot to say, and they are here to say it. Don't miss your chance to be part of the next biggest Irish superstars' story.
