Virgin of the Birds treads a line between intimate, lo fi folk and the occasional grandeur of early art rock. Briefly based in Austin, TX before settling in Seattle, WA, Virgin of the Birds was born in the mid-00′s as an outlet for Jon Rooney’s songs outside of Morning Spy, a now-slumbering indie pop/rock band he formed in San Francisco, CA. In 2009, Virgin of the Birds began releasing a series of free, download-only EPs entirely written, recorded, mixed and mastered at home. MIDI was liberally employed.

Press

“Virgin Of The Birds have really outdone themselves with Banquet Years. It’s quite easily their most accomplished work yet.” – FensePost

“’Let Me Be Your Bride’ starts like an homage to early Motown with the best use of a tambourine since Jack Ashford retired before morphing into another indie pop gem.” – The Devil Has the Best Tuna

Reviews:
Song, By Toad, FensePost, The Devil Has the Best Tuna, Heroes of Indie Music, Paper Pistol
