The Whybirds

Biography

The Whybirds are a four piece rock 'n' roll/alt.country band from Bedford, England. All four members (Dave Banks, Ben Haswell, Taff Thatcher and Luke Tuchscherer) are singer/songwriters – giving the group a diverse range of songs and vocal styles – but without straying from The Whybirds' sanguine brand of rock 'n' roll. Classic Rock journalist Derek Oliver said: "If you are at all interested in alt.country rock then you’ll love The Whybirds. They have it all; songs, musicianship and a sense of maturity that most acts of this kind can’t even comprehend. I’ve lost count of the amount of times that Q, Uncut or Word magazine has banged on about alt.country artists to hear music that sounds like its been recorded in a bathroom by clueless embryonic singer/songwriters. "These guys are the real deal – think Flying Burrito Brothers, Tom Petty and The Band. Better looking than the early Eagles and every inch as determined, you’ll be hearing more of these guys some time soon." According to Americana UK, The Whybirds "...sound like Pearl Jam having a fist fight with The Allman Brothers in Don Henley’s back yard. But what’s more important is that The Whybirds might just be the hardest working and hardest rocking band in Britain right now – a band destined for greatness". The band have just released their second album, Cold Blue Sky, which is available now from www.thewhybirds.com and from iTunes, Amazon and other digital media. The Whybirds' previous releases (2008's The Whybirds LP and 2007's Tonight EP) are also available from thewhybirds.com and on iTunes. www.thewhybirds.com Read more on Last.fm.
