Biography:Hummingbird are Amy Wadge, Cathy Burton and Edwina Hayes. They met on the festival circuit
in the UK over the last five years and decided in late 2005 that there was safety
in numbers, and so formed a band. This is not a collection of doe eyed teenagers,
whose mother sent them to a stage school and are now looking to marry a footballer.
These are three professional musicians, who make a living, almost, from music
as well as doing a multitude of other jobs (temping, raising children, teaching music, cleaning, working in a crouton
factory, etc etc)... Anything that needs to be done, to get a collection
of battered Japanese cars to the next gig. They have amassed 9 record deals, 11 lawyers and 14 managers between them. They could
write the Beginners guide to the music biz if someone thought it would sell
and if they could find a manager, lawyer, publisher and agent.
They teamed up
with the Mighty Vibration production team in January 2006, and made their debut
album 'Tougher Than Love'. Somewhere between Kirsty Macoll
and a female Crosby Stills and Nash. This is a collection of 11 songs that really
do show that a combined thirty years on the road, means practise makes perfect
and believing Richard Thompson to be a sex symbol is no shame.
