Give It Away

Andrew Bird

A rustic, four-track collection of barn-recorded sessions and intimate covers. Stripped of studio polish, it highlights the raw, percussive wood of the violin.

A warm, wooden intimacy that feels like a private conversation in a sun-drenched barn.

Moments Worth Listening For
The rhythmic, percussive wood-knocking and floor-stomping that drives the extended 'Barn Sessions' version of Danse Carribe.
The heartbreakingly sincere vocal delivery on the cover of The Handsome Family's 'So Much Wine', stripped of all artifice.
The way the violin loops slowly build into a swirling, dizzying folk-dance during the bridge of Tarrytown Mess.
