Wandering Oak: British Birds
Advertisement
Wandering Oak brings you:
British Birds
plus support
at The Cumberland Arms
• British Birds •
Forged from a fireless market town with Tolkien-esque hills and Lowry style mills, British Birds straddle the landscape of Northern life through their colourful garage rock song, like a dawn chorus in an apocalyptic smog.
Stories of personal experience and 'the everyday' flow through their songs like the nearby canal networks. Hues of psychedelia tint their music like the confusion of modern day life, with a sombering melancholy seeping from its pores like a quintessential Northern drizzle, and their pop heartbeat thumping on like the industrial hammers.
Lead vocals are delivered by siblings Bobby (guitar) and Emma (synth and percussion). The 5-piece is complete by Mike Ainsley (drums and guitar), James Robinson (bass) and Dom Lawson (drums).
Operating from their HQ-cum-nest in Chorley, the band have established a reputation as one of the most exciting live acts in the UK. Mad-cowbell infused They have toured with BC Camplight, The Lovely Eggs and The Bug Club and have self-released two albums and an EP; In Search Of Mr Rykyn (February 2024), Sucking Funny EP (August 2024) and Silence Daedalus (June 2025).
Their first album for Skep Wax Records, Murmurate, Oscillate, will be released on 16th October 2026.
