Our Take
Our Take
The latest collaboration between Jimbo Mathus and Andrew Bird, These 13, is a delightful ode to Americana tinged with the quirky brilliance that only these two artists could bring.
Mathus, known for his eclectic musical tastes and raw, authentic storytelling, teams up with Bird, the virtuoso violinist and master of whimsical lyrics, to create a truly unique listening experience. From the opening track "Poor Lost Souls" to the closing notes of "Dig Up the Hatchet," These 13 is a rollercoaster of emotion and musicality that will have you tapping your toes and scratching your head in wonder.
The instrumentation on this album is spot on, with Mathus' gritty vocals blending seamlessly with Bird's ethereal violin playing. Tracks like "Sweet Oblivion" and "Bright Sunny South" showcase the duo's ability to weave intricate melodies and poignant lyrics into a tapestry of sound that is both comforting and challenging.
But it's not all serious introspection on These 13. Mathus and Bird inject plenty of humour and irreverence into tracks like "Stonewall (1863)" and "Red Velvet Snowball," showing that they don't take themselves too seriously, even as they craft music that is undeniably profound.
Overall, These 13 is a triumph of collaboration and creativity, showcasing two musical geniuses at the top of their game. So grab a glass of whisky, put on your best cowboy boots, and strap in for a wild ride through the twisted minds of Jimbo Mathus and Andrew Bird. Trust us, you won't regret it.

About the artist
Jimbo Mathus & Andrew Bird
JIMBO MATHUS Hailing from Mississippi, Jimbo Mathus is a musical force to be reckoned with. Known for his eclectic blend of blues, country, and rockabilly, Mathus has been making waves in the industry for over three decades. With a raspy voice that can melt even the coldest of hearts, Mathus is a true artist with a unique sound that is impossible to categorize. Mathus first gained recognition as a member of the band Squirrel Nut Zippers, where he showcased his songwriting prowess and infectious energy on stage. Since then, he has embarked on a successful solo career, releasing a string of critically acclaimed albums that have solidified his reputation as a musical genius. Whether he's crooning about love lost or tearing it up on the guitar, Mathus brings a raw authenticity to his music that is refreshing in an industry often plagued by pretense. With Mathus, what you see is what you get - and what you get is pure, unadulterated talent. ANDREW BIRD Andrew Bird is not your average musician. With a style that defies genre classification, Bird has carved out a niche for himself in the indie music scene that is uniquely his own. Known for his virtuosic violin skills, whistling prowess, and poetic lyrics, Bird is a true Renaissance man of modern music. Bird's music is a tapestry of influences, weaving together elements of folk, jazz, and classical music into a rich and complex sound that is all his own. Whether he's plucking away at his violin or singing in his signature falsetto, Bird's music is a breath of fresh air in a world of musical mediocrity. But don't let his serious musical chops fool you - Bird has a cheeky sense of humour that shines through in his live performances and interviews. With a wink and a nod, Bird reminds us that music doesn't have to be pretentious to be meaningful.
