The Catbirds have released their first full-length album Subanimal Sounds, and will be celebrating this release tonight (March 4th) at The Hideout with Baby Teeth. The Catbirds is primarily the work of Baltimore’s Peter Beyer, but the band includes F. James Cooper of our own Detholz!, as well as Benyamin Artes-Miranda and Karl Doerfenmueller of Chicago.
The Catbird sound is somewhat Americana, somewhat psychedelic, and like folk-pop. It’s a pleasant blend that could span a number of decades and influences, namely Belle and Sebastian or The Beach Boys.
