RUN FOR OUR LIVES is out now. vyd.co/RunForOurLives

This tune was written with and produced by Jason Falkner. I wrote the verses decades ago, but never found the right chorus. Jason had some chords and a melody hanging around and they worked perfectly. We love it when a plan comes together.

RUN FOR OUR LIVES is the third single from THE ESCAPE ARTIST (out Oct 17) and it’s probably the poppiest song on the new album. We hope you love it.

While Jason and I handled most of the music on our own, the album features guest appearances by Gina Romantini, Zach Jones, and Oscar Albis Rodriguez.

I can’t wait for you all to hear these songs.

Produced by Jason Falkner at his Los Angeles studio, it was recorded over four years, beginning in the early days of the global pandemic, and runs the musical gamut from claustrophobic folk to anthemic indie-pop to punk-rock freakout.

Bird Streets || John Brodeur @birdstreets.bsky.social · Jul 15

The first single, MISTAKER, is available today on all streaming platforms.

The Escape Artist is a paranoid guitar-pop record, rife with themes of isolation and existential dread.

Bird Streets || John Brodeur @birdstreets.bsky.social · Jul 15

We’re ecstatic to announce that the brand-new Bird Streets album THE ESCAPE ARTIST will be released October 17. It will be available on limited-edition vinyl and CD, which can be pre-ordered through our web store and Bandcamp.
