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.
