Named after a bird watchers guide book found in a California bookstore, the band No Bird Sing creates a raw, bluesy blend of hip-hop. Joe Horton aka Eric Blair teams with his former Hyder Ali band mate Robert Mulrennan and drummer Graham O'Brien in this artistically bold group.

No Bird Sing constructs an organic and minimalistic style of hip-hop with one guitar, one microphone, and drums. No Bird Sing released their self-titled album earlier this year in September.

No Bird Sing stopped by The Current studios for a live performance on The Local Show.

Songs performed: "Chopper," "Landmines," "Devil Trombones," "Ars Poetica" (web exclusive).
