BAMP Project, Hawaii's premier concert production company is proud to announce the return of indie-rock multi-instrumentalist Andrew Bird back to Honolulu for a one-night-only performance at Hawaii Theatre on January 12, 2012.

Bird began his career in old-time jazz and as a violinist. He has gone on to build an incredible indie-rock career and an amazing live show where he constructs his songs piece by piece solo on stage with layer after layer eventually creating an updated version of recorded products that always eclipse the original.

In January 2009 Andrew Bird released Noble Beast on Fat Possum Records. The self-produced album consists of fourteen original songs. Bird handles violin, vocals, whistling, and guitar with back-up from live cohorts Martin Dosh (percussion, looping, keys), Jeremy Ylvisaker (guitar, bass, organ, shortwave) and more recently Mike Lewis, plus a supporting cast including Kelly Hogan, Todd Sickafoose, and the band Loney Dear.

Other albums include Armchair Apocrypha which was released to immediate and widespread acclaim. Newsweek called it, "… just the right parts darkness and light," while The New York Times noted "Mr. Bird spins existential doubts into elegant confections." Armchair Apocrypha went on to sell over 100,000 copies as Bird makes his debuts on The Late Show with David Letterman, Late Night with Conan O’Brien. What followed was a triumphant tour culminating in sold out performances at the Beacon Theater in New York and the Orpheum Theater in Los Angeles which featured appearances at Coachella, the Austin City Limits festival, the Hollywood Bowl and Bumbershoot, as well as over 100 of his own dates in between, without ever playing the same set--or the same arrangement of any song, for that matter.

Bird will be releasing his first instrumental score for the upcoming independent film, Norman, on Oct. 11. Bird’s soundtrack will feature both an instrumental score and an assortment of both original and previously released songs. The soundtrack marks both Bird’s followup to 2009’s Noble Beast and his segue into his new album, which is apparently already being finished up for release in early 2012. According to Bird, the soundtrack will feature some of the new his music.
