Little Birdie, led by singer-songwriter Orit Shimoni, is an up-and-coming folk/alt-country band based in Montreal, and steadily spreading into the hearts of many, with CBC radio play across Canada, performances at Mariposa Folk Festival and Canadian Music Week, and radio and t.v. appearances.
Known for her "siren's voice and songwriting pearls" (the Montreal Mirror), Orit's lyrics are "truly profound" (the Suburban) and captivating. Backed up by Andre Kirchhoff's intense musicianship and harmonies, the band plays as a trio or four-piece when on tour. In Montreal they often perform with members of local band Lil' Buck, the front-man of which, Mark Goodwin is responsible for the "stellar production job" (Montreal Mirror) of Little Birdie's debut album, Cinematic Way, which was nominated for best country album in the GAMIQ (Quebec Independent Music Awards).
