Birdhand

BIRDHAND is a rock n' roll band from Santa Cruz, CA that formed in late 2010. Within a year, the group caught the attention of Bad Brains' bassist, Darryl Jenifer. BIRDHAND went on to record a debut EP, which was produced by Jenifer and since, has shared stages with bands such as Baths, Memoryhouse, Soft Pack, Judgment Day, Bear Hands and Ty Segall. In September, 2011, the band wrapped up life in Northern California and ventured to Los Angeles after multi-platinum selling producer, Eric Valentine invited the band to track demos at his very own studio, Barefoot Recording. Following these sessions was a national tour, including supporting dates with Bad Brains. Landing in New York City, BIRDHAND seeks to turn fresh surroundings into inspiration and to deliver its ever-evolving sound to wider audiences.

"This band comes off like DEAD MEADOW and PRIMAL SCREAM on a bender with NIRVANA and ZEPPELIN, all sorts of good stuff under one glittering and yet at times muddy umbrella." [Morgan Y. Evan – AMP Magazine]

"First of all Birdhand is the future of rock and roll; the first band in years that I "heard" first, before I saw them, like the radio days of old. These cats are the truth, the dopest band I have worked with ever. If you don't believe me, listen to their honest, ripping rock and roll sound. Shit reminds me of back in the day when cats used to have to play the guitar, rock the bass, beat the hell out of the drums and sing like a stadium rocking ma'fucka. Yo, Birdhand is the future, the truth, the new shit...Can't say I didn't tell ya." [Darryl Jenifer / Bad Brains]
