Tuesday 29th January - Mr Bird
Steve Bird A.K.A. Mr Bird is based in Newcastle, and has been writing and recording music for the last eight years, both in bands and on his own. By 1998, when Radio 1's Sound City was held in Newcastle he was part of instrumental hip hop band 'The Beat Messengers', one of the official bands. Then in 1999 along with writing partner 'Wild Palms' he set up the 'Inside Audio' label, and released a promotional 12" as well as a compilation album of local recording artists based in Newcastle. The 12" featured the first track recorded under the name of Mr Bird as well as a track from Wild Palms and a joint collaboration under the moniker 'Freaks of Nature'.

Last year he released two further 12" singles as well as his debut album Mr Bird "Eats Worms", on the Brighton based Hertz recordings. Mr Bird is hoping to have a new 12" collaboration with Wild Palms out on Hertz in the next few months. He is also working on new material for the next Mr Bird album, as well as doing re-mixing work.

Mr Bird DJs at clubs in Newcastle and elsewhere, most recently at a 4-day 'Brighton Special' festival in Rouen in France. He has played backstage in the dance tent at Glastonbury after Fatboy Slim, and will be playing in Iceland for two weeks this July.
