Chicken Like Birds

Label: Independent
since circa 2014
One night at a local watering hole in Calgary, Jasmin and Ari were arguing about something long since forgotten and a wrestling match broke out. There was some fierce grappling, Jas pinned Ari down (Ari will say that he let her win) and kicked him in the groin. This is how their strange relationship began. Since that fateful (and painful) night, music came naturally to them, and after spending a month in the woods together, the two have emerged as Chicken-Like Birds. With a home base currently in Vancouver, together they bring forth the olde-time-new-time country blues and ragtime, a smidge of intentional sloppiness, a foot stomp or two, and often humorous lyrics with a bit of sugary sweetness in there for good measure. Chicken-Like Birds are always striving to push the limits of what they can do, bringing their quirkiness and passion to the stage for a fun and interactive show that is never quite the same twice.
