Andrew Bird: New Album And Gig

Chicagoan releases second album of the year in November

Andrew Bird is set to release his new album Hands of Glory (artwork above) on November 6 along with a performance at the Roundhouse in London on November 8.

Here’s the track listing:

  1. ‘Three White Horses’
