HARRY BIRD at Cafe Kino

A gig held at Cafe Kino on Tuesday 7th May. The event starts at 19:30.


Internationally acclaimed singer songwriter Harry Bird has spent the last 15 years touring hundreds of venues all over Europe and beyond with his guitar, multilingual vocals and a passion for connecting with audiences of all kinds.

A lyrical weaver of layered-up narratives, he is a versatile storyteller with a love of rhythm and rhyme, allegory and dance whose back catalogue consists of 3 LPs with travelling folksters the Rubber Wellies and his latest solo album "Mucho Picnic", released on Hot Drop Records in 2023.

His compositions have featured on stage and on screen, most recently in Irish horror director Damian Mc Carthy’s award winning film “Oddity”, which premiered at the SXWX Festival in March 2024 to rave reviews. He has written the soundtracks to 4 touring circus shows in the Basque Country, sung on audiobooks for Penguin and appeared regularly as a multi-instrumental actor/musician at the Bristol Old Vic theatre.

Drawing on British folk, Americana and other world music genres, his live performances are an intimate cabaret of finely crafted songs, freewheeling anecdotes and good humour. Original, entertaining and thought provoking, his energetic, feel-good shows are not to be missed.
