The Wooden Birds
Add To My Artists

Andrew Kenny is a native Texan who after nearly six years in Brooklyn, NY has returned to beautiful Austin, TX. He's best known as the singer/songwriter behind mellow indie favorites The American Analog Set. However, he's also performed as a guest artist with The Album Leaf, Her Space Holiday, Styrofoam, Ola Podrida, Arthur & Yu, and most recently with Broken Social Scene.

His latest project is called The Wooden Birds and their first album, Magnolia, was released in May 2009 by Barsuk Records in the US & Canada and on Morr Music in Europe. Fans of the the AmAnSet will recognize his voice and song writing immediately, but the arrangements on Magnolia are more vocal and percussion heavy than anything he's done before.

The Wooden Birds also includes Ola Podrida songwriter and David Gordon Green film score composer, David Wingo and vocalist, guitarist, and AmAnSet guest artist, Leslie Sisson, with drummer, Sean Haskins, and guitarist, Matt Pond, rounding out the live line-up.

The group recently released a free EP entitled Montague Street containing 4 re-recorded songs from their debut album, it is available here for download from Insound.
