REDBIRD is both the name of an album and of a loose affiliation of four American songwriters that began to take shape during a common tour experience. In early 2003, KRIS DELMHORST, JEFFREY FOUCAULT, and PETER MULVEY toured together in England as an Americana triple-bill. England is a small country and the drives were not long, and it developed that in the afternoons after checking into their hotel rooms they’d pull up chairs, plug in the electric tea kettle, uncase their guitars, and start playing songs. Any song, if it was good, and they hadn’t already played it, and they knew the first few lines. Old or new songs, written by other people mostly, jazz ballads or country crooners, blues or Bowie, the Beatles or anything else, all the late greats and plenty of neither, anything as long as it had the right spirit. Something like a poker game played without hard money, and everyone pushing their little pile of strange coins and trinkets, pocket knife or compass, to the middle of the table to be reckoned.
Over the course of the tour they started playing on each other’s sets and ending the shows together. They started drinking cheap Porto and playing poker late at night. They got awfully friendly, and some of them married each other.
On returning to the states they decided they wanted to go back to England again on a longer tour, and perhaps go to Ireland as well. They decided they wanted to do away with the triple bill format, and bring David Goodrich to play lead. They decided they wanted cheap Christmas gifts for their friends and family. On an impulse of rare genius they decided to make a record. ...from MySpace.
