Since Railbird had been named as one of the best emerging indie rock bands for a few years by various sources, it’s interesting that they’ve decided to change their name to Lip Talk. According to an official release from the Brooklyn based group,"this change is for many reasons and the band “…won’t bore you with them all now. […] Most importantly, it’s about representing the current state of the music and vision behind the band members. One thing that we would like to share, relating to the process of changing the name, is that it feels great to have finally arrived at a name for this musical beast of ours.”
As Railbird, Sarah Pedinotti and crew has given us thoughtful, soulful and charismatic soundtracks to their seemingly endless creativity. Lip Talk, with their recent debut EP "Lucky" (titletrack streaming below) continues to bring us a fresh take on the rock – pop exploration. “It’s a happy, moody, experimental pop beast, and it’s definitely steering the ship, not us…” NYC fans will have an opportunity to see this new incarnation live on Friday December 13, when the band will perform at The Deli’s Brooklyn Bazaar electro-pop show with Small Black, Brothertiger and Papertwin. – Joey Fish
