Steve Bird AKA Mr Bird is a musician, producer, photographer, film-maker & DJ, based in sunny Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK. He has been writing music, DJ'ing and playing in bands and lots of other stuff for what seems like a lifetime, still looking for that perfect beat... As Mr Bird, Steve has released several records which have been played on Radio1 by Giles Petersen, John Peel, Mary Anne Hobbs and Steve Lamacq. He was also invited to record a session for the late, great DJ John Peel (greatly missed) at the BBC Maida Vale Studios, which was broadcast twice in 2002, and has had his music used by BBC1, BBC2, ITV, CH4 & MTV. Steve has both Dj'ed backstage in the Dance Tent and played in the Dance Tent itself at the Glastonbury Festival over the last 7 years, last year making a short Super-8 film of the festival in its sunny and muddy glory. He has also provided music for short films including 'The Drop' which was recently premiered at the Bristol Film Festival. Mr Bird co-wrote the music for a film called The Chimera Project which was produced in Newcastle in conjunction with the Light Surgeons and the Tyneside Cinema, and was broadcast in 2003 on BBC2. Steve has just released his 2nd LP on the Brighton based label, Frequent Soundz, and is currently working on the 3rd Mr Bird LP (Provisionally called 'Super-Canny'), finishing off lots of other music and performing under new alter-egos, re-mixing other artists, making short films when he has the time, DJ'ing lots in and around Newcastle and occasionally further afield, with gigs in Lisbon and Hungary this year. Steve is currently working on providing music for animations and show-reels, some of which be will be appearing on here soon...
