The Wooden Birds, led by Andrew Kenny (American Analog Set, Broken Social Scene) announce their North American headlining tour in support their great new full length, 'Two Matchsticks.'  The summer tour around  Barsuk's June 7th release of the album includes shows along both coasts and two Canadian dates.  Last month, The Wooden Birds treated fans to sets at SXSW which featured new tracks from 'Two Matchsticks' plus faves from their debut 'Magnolia' and AmAnSet gems as well.   The band also recorded an exclusive session with KUT which features unreleased songs which you can listen to here  

This week MTVHive premieres the first song off 'Two Matchsticks and we're thrilled to be sharing it with all of you here !  The title track was recorded in a converted bedroom in Kenny's Austin home and mixed at Resonate Studio with producer Louie Lino (Nada Surf).  In creating 'Two Matchsticks,' the band drew on the strengths of their live show, making it more driven, upbeat and fuller than the Birds' previous efforts. The album also features Wooden Birds members Leslie Sisson and Matt Pond who, in addition to singing backing vocals on the album, sing lead and duet with Kenny on some of the album's most memorable songs.  Other special guests include Ben Gibbard from Death Cab For Cutie along with members of Ola Podrida.
