Austinmer six-piece Shining Bird are one of the most awe-inspiring bands around at the moment. Their sharp and reedy folk-rock sound is bolstered by a strong sense of identity and communion that makes their songs profoundly intimate and moving. As part of Vivid Sydney's 2016 program, Shining Bird will be launching their new single "Helluva Lot" at Newtown Social Club with support from Solid Effort and Morning TV.
