Tweak Bird

Brothers Ashton and Caleb Bird are the Southern Illinois-based duo Tweak Bird, finally releasing their first proper full length album. Produced by regular collaborators Deaf Nephews (Dale Crover from the Melvins and Toshi Kasai from Big Business), Tweak Bird's new album is simply titled Tweak Bird. Driven by big drums, fuzzed out baritone guitar and tandem spacey vocal melodies, the album is a swirl of catchy and raw stoner-pop bits that are spliced, blended and expanded upon with unique sections of instrumentation. But don't expect any lengthy progressive jams with Tweak Bird; they make quick work of their arrangements, "Beyond," Ashton's favorite song, clocks in at just two minutes. "We have short attention spans and big ideas," laughs Ashton. "We like to get our jobs done."
