BBC1 Favorite, Jealous of the Birds Release NY Inspired Video
Jealous of the Birds release a new music video, “New York Has a Lump in Her Throat,” from the EP Wisdom Teeth. “Last summer I was lucky enough to explore some infamous NYC hotspots where many of my favorite artists lived, performed and hung out, and we gathered together the footage for the ‘New York Has a Lump in Her Throat’ music video. Like every big city, New York holds its own unique artistic heritage and it blew my mind to be able to exist even for an afternoon in the same places as those artists. That human chain is ongoing and when I wrote the song, I was conscious of being part of that line of people trying to make good art amid so much chaos.”

Hannah Cohen Shares New Track “This Is Your Life”
“It was the beginning of September and NYC was in the midst of a big heat wave,” Cohen says of the track. “It was very early in the morning and my partner was still sleeping, even with the air conditioning buzzing away. I was working on this song in the bathroom so I wouldn’t wake him up. At the time we were searching for our first apartment together, and had seen about 27 apartments in person. All were gross or out of our price range. It was definitely a catalyst for wanting to move out of the city – and it all came rushing at me. I really needed a change. Locked in a boiling hot bathroom, playing my nylon-string guitar, I realized that this is it… my life is crazy, it’s time to make a big move.”
