Fish & Bird are coming home! Playing on familiar turf in January, the ferocious fivesome are being celebrated for their break-out release this year. Currently nominated for the Fan Choice Award in the Times Colonist Music Awards (click to vote for them) (Victoria, BC), the band was also the proud recipient of a nomination for Roots Group Recording of the Year at the 2011 Western Canadian Music Awards. In January 2012 the band are taking an opportunity to get together and play some shows on the west coast, so don't miss them!

Fish & Bird are Canada's alt-folk force to be reckoned with and their latest album, Every Whisper is a Shout Across the Void, marks a major step forward for the band. Released in April 2011, the critically acclaimed and nominated album redefines the Fish & Bird experience once again. It pushes just the right amount of alt music into their folk base, creating a sound all their own that's as familiar as it is new. They have weird vocal improv sections, they rock out in 11/8, sometimes it seems like they're playing bluegrass, and they might make you cry.
