“It’s taken a long time, but it’s an enticing, many-layered listen.” PROG Magazine
Piano led, guitar-less British trio EXPLORING BIRDSONG closes the current chapter of its band history with their new single “All I Lack.” From now on the band is fully focused on the future, gearing up for their debut album release in 2025.
The band comments:
“‘All I Lack’ being the last single ahead of our album release feels pretty profound. It would make sense for this song to indicate where we’re headed next and let our listeners into what has been happening at Birdsong HQ, but that has never really how we’ve chosen to operate. This song has shades of old (in the most literal sense – there are actual parts and stems from old songs in here) and new, whilst still being totally true to us, which feels fitting as we move ahead in our next phase as a band. Essentially a love song, we’re tapping into new areas of songwriting that we’re starting to become more comfortable with exploring. Lyrically, ‘All I Lack’ faces the beauty of the feeling of loving someone, whilst knowing your time together at some point will end; and, as a result, wanting to almost stretch time so it never has to end. Arguably, it is easier to write whilst staying within the parameters of a concept or narrative. Writing about real life takes a degree of introspection that can be uncomfortable sometimes, but essential in taking us to new places and maturing our writing. This one means a lot to us, and feels like a great way to close this chapter of the band. We can’t wait for people to guess what on earth this album is going to be like!”
Rarely are new groups as exciting, talented, or unique as EXPLORING BIRDSONG. Straddling pop, progressive rock, and uncategorizable genre-blending beauty, the band is unplaceable for the most part but brings to mind elements of London Grammar, Kate Bush, and Everything Everything.
Rarely too do you hear voices as captivating as frontwoman Lynsey Ward’s. Powerful, controlled, and spine-chillingly tender, Lynsey’s vocals help mark EXPLORING BIRDSONG as a prospect to watch, from the release of their acclaimed debut The Thing With Feathers (2019, Long Branch Records) to 2023’s EP Dancing in the Face of Danger.

EXPLORING BIRDSONG caught the eyes of key players in the press (Kerrang! Magazine, Prog Magazine, Classic Rock Magazine) and achieved two Progressive Music Awards nominations. The young group recently joined KATATONIA as a special guest following successful support tours with the likes of Sleep Token and Thank You Scientist.
