BIRDTALKER
"Fronted by Zack and Dani Green along with Brian Seligman and Chris Wilson, Birdtalker made their whirlwind debut in 2018 with One featuring their breakout single "Heavy" (now over 95 million streams worldwide). Rolling Stone hailed it as “infectious and sprightly” and NPR Music called it “such a beautiful record” while also earning similar praises from Billboard, World Cafe, American Songwriter, and Relix among others. The release led to non-stop touring, festival appearances, and even their debut performance at the Grand Ole Opry. They followed that up in 2021 with their anticipated sophomore album Birdtalker, which was met with further critical acclaim from Rolling Stone, Paste, Relix, PopMatters, The Boot, The Bluegrass Situation, Americana Highways, American Songwriter, Under The Radar, and more. John Mayer featured one of their latest songs, Season Of Charade, on his SiriusXM Show, stating "the whole thing is fantastic."
MOST INFLUENTIAL ALBUMS
Zack: LIVE AT JAVA JOES | JASON MRAZ
This record drew me in with its playfulness, simplicity, and humor. It was the record I can point to that first made me want to participate in writing my own music.
Dani: 1,000 KISSES | PATTY GRIFFIN
I heard Patty Griffin’s 1,000 Kisses probably a thousand times, and was fully drawn into her vivid and textural storytelling, along with her clear and earnest voice that delivered such emotionally raw lyrics in poetic language.
