"Bluebird Kid Clark have got a brilliant sound, one of the most distinctive sounds out of all the new manchester bands." - CLINT BOON, XFM MANCHESTER
“Glorious Kinks-meets-Beatles pop songs.” - MANCHESTER ON-LINE
"...the album reels out potential hit after hit... Bluebird Kid Clark's Album is literally just ready to fly off the shelf"- MANUEL ECOSTOS, manchestermusic.co.uk
"Really clever song-writing... so much happening it makes you want to hear it again. " - PHIL JUPITUS BBC RADIO 6
"....a band with a varied sound, which is so rare and refreshing. Remember the name Bluebird Kid Clark they're going places. Today Stalybridge, tomorrow the world." - CHRIS HORRICKS, SANDMAN MAGAZINE
“The Bluebirds have a '60s sound that allies them with the likes of The Coral, The Zutons and The Stands. They have their own style though, the main thing they have in common with those other bands is the high quality of their songs” - WHATS ON IN LONDON

Grouper (US) has her latest – Dragging A Dead Deer Up A Hill – of three albums on Type Records. She has also been involved in collaborative releases, contributing a track to Xiu Xiu’s Remixed & Covered and four tracks to a split release with Inca Ore. Her other contemporaries are Belong, Growing, Tim Hecker, Windy & Carl and Atlas Sound.
Jasper TX (Sweden), with a hefty back-catalogue of releases on labels such as Miasmah, and collaborations with buddy Machinefabriek, is an essential domestic appliance in the household of conceptual music. He is comparable to artists Fennesz, Sigur Ros, Múm and Tape.
Intricate and atmospheric songsmith, Danny Saul (UK) performs with different combinations of musicians, making each gig a unique event. His forthcoming release is "Harsh, Final", and he also performs with Greg Haines as Liondialer.
Fieldhead (UK) music delights in tape hiss, bleak landscapes and decaying analogue loops. He is also a member of The Declining Winter and Glissando. His debut album, "They Shook Hands for Hours" is released soon on Home Assembly.
Hey up bluebird boys, hows it going? Long time no see. Just thought we'd check in and say well done on the new recordings, they sound great, and good luck in the apollo gig - that will be a massive night.
Trespassers William (Seattle, US) are the duo of Matt Brown and
Anna-Lynne Williams. "Subliminally sublime and pragmatically perfect,
you would have to possess an ashtray for a heart not to feel this
coursing through your soul" (DSD Music Magazine). A new EP, The Natural
Order of Things, is set to be released on Gizeh Records. They will make
a church performance with special guests.
Glissando (Sheffield, UK) “have the kind of atmosphere that can
captivate and relax in equal measure- never before has tranquillity
sounded so urgent. While track lengths of over 10 minutes may fail to
hold the attention of the ADHD sufferers among us, with patience it
plays like a majestic dream. And it's one you'll never want to wake up
from." NME
Operations (Chris Anderson) is a Manchester based conceptual music
producer and sound artist. He performs and records with an array of
analog synths and effects, reel-to-reel tape and casette players, and
guitars. Followers of Tim Hecker, Slowdive, Fennesz, Godspeed You!
Black Emperor, Stephen O'Malley, Type and 12K Records will surely nod
in approval.
