Wildbirds and Peacedrums

Hailing from Sweden, Wildbirds & Peacedrums is comprised of married couple, Andreas Werliin and Mariam Wallentin. The couple met at a music academy where they both complained about the singular focus on technique and regularity. Their own approach to music is rather unorthodox. Andreas uses first and foremost drums which he now and then backs with electronic effects and glockenspiel. Mariam handles the vocals and she easily switches between sounding like Nina Simone and Joanna Newsom.
