Description

Migrant Birds is an indie folk outfit from Winston-Salem, North Carolina that combines elements of pop, rock, and Americana to write folk songs for the modern age. Armed with the timeless tools of intimate songwriting and close vocal harmony, their music can shapeshift to fit any music club, noisy bar or hushed living room. Drawing inspiration from traditional Appalachian folk tunes and modern acts like Shovels and Rope, Brandi Carlile, and Andrew Bird, the group specializes in highly narrative songwriting supported by lush and intentional arrangements. Migrant Birds is fronted by Spencer McNair Ayscue, a North Carolina native educated in the hills of Appalachia, and features a rotating cast of musicians who help bring the music of Migrant Birds to life, most recently Sam Amos (guitar, keys), Brian Becker (bass), and Margaret Morton (drums)
