   About The Whybirds
The Whybirds represent a distillation of the best of rock music from the last four decades. Imagine the vocal harmonies of the Byrds and the Band, the songcraft of Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty and Steve Earle and the sonic attack of the Black Crowes and Pearl Jam, and you're getting close to the stirring, uplifting sound of The Whybirds.

All four members of the band are singer/songwriters – giving the group a diverse range of songs and vocal styles – but without straying from The Whybirds' sanguine brand of rock 'n' roll.

The band are currently working with legendary US producer Elliot Mazer (Neil Young, The Byrds, The Band etc), who produced and mixed the tracks on this page.

Their gigs show them at their blistering best. Don’t miss out, go and see them live!

According to Americana UK, The Whybirds "...sound like Pearl Jam having a fist fight with The Allman Brothers in Don Henley’s back yard. But what’s more important is that The Whybirds might just be the hardest working and hardest rocking band in Britain right now – a band destined for greatness".

Oxford's Nightshift magazine said: "The Whybirds are one of the most consummate and charismatic British bands I've ever seen. They have four lead singers of great quality, and in taking their turn, each subtly changes the texture of the band. By the end I don't want them to leave the stage, the crowd whooping and hollering, and I think, I really wouldn't want to follow that."
