A new album is coming but Kurt won’t be on it. The band announced over the weekend that they parted ways with their co-vocalist and will soon be hitting the studio.

We are eternally grateful for and proud of everything Kurt has contributed to our band in the years since his induction, but it is time for both of us to move on and we wish him the best with his solo career (Kurt Travis) and his label Esque Records.

The Birds will be entering the studio om April 11th to begin tracking their fourth studio album.
