The Bird Of Music

Brooklyn's Au Revoir Simone are specialists in bringing out the heart from within the machine, conjuring a gorgeous, child-like effervescence via pieces of plastic, metal and wires. While their music is created through the medium of electronics, their songs resonate with an organic warmth that defies their instruments of choice: three keyboards and a drum machine. That's right. Three keyboards and a drum machine. Layers of synths anchored by palpitating drum machine blips and frosted by ethereal vocal melodies, The Bird Of Music displays that the subtle moments in human interaction are the very ones the band enjoys describing most.
