Multibird

Formed in 2015, critics have hailed Multibird’s sound as “tender and calm” (New York Press) and “twisted and distorted” (Relix). Where Faergolzia’s critically-acclaimed avant-rock outfit, Dufus, shook up New York City in the ‘00s with folk-punk gymnastics and Captain Beefheart-esque abrasion, Multibird creates the communal amiability of a warm gathering around the hearth. A Multibird show can lead almost anywhere, from raucous foot-stompers to songs soft, heartwarming and careful, to an a cappella quartet, all the while anchored by Faergolzia’s enigmatic voice and captivating presence. Outré as the four-piece may get, fans of Mumford and Sons will still feel right at home. The Multibird quartet currently consists of [a=Seth Faergolzia] (acoustic guitar, loops and vocals), [a=Shaun Jones (2)] (electric guitar, vocals, and percussion), [a=Emily DiPaola] (trumpet, drums, vocals) and [a=Luke Cornwell] (bass, drums, vocals). These versatile and powerful musicians bring a huge sound despite the small ensemble.
