The Birds started out in 1964 and quickly became well known on the rhythm and blues scene in England.
They had a similar sound to rival bands such as The Rolling Stones, The Who, The Yardbirds, The Pretty Things, etc.
Starting out with a hard R&B sound, they later began infusing it with Motown-style vocal harmonies. They were best as a live act & were regarded by many as Londons most Dynamic R&B act, untill they split in 1967.
In 2009, The Birds lead vocalist Ali MacKenzie performed two Birds tracks at a special reunion gig of 'Les Fleur Des Lys' with house band of the night, the Small Fakers. Ali and the band realised something good had happened on the night, with many people asking whether they were going to be doing it again.
In 2010 rehearsals started for a full set of Birds material, including many tracks from the 'Collector's Guide' album, alongside songs that were part of The Birds live setlist back in '65-'66.
This will be the first FULL SET SINCE 67' & will sure to be a legendary evening!
