Tin Bird Choir is a barn rock band from Chester County Pennsylvania. They write songs that are rooted in the rural world they grew up in, yet still pulse with urgency. Two songs off their latest album Homesteadywere picked up by Starbucks and are played in their stores worldwide. Another song, “Cheaper, Less Painful,” earned the band a spot as one of the regional finalists in the Mountain Stage Newsong Contest. With lyrical integrity and driving melodies, Tin Bird Choir is fun, often quirky, and even a little haunting. Learn more about them at tinbirdchoir.com.
