Andrew Bird – “Fitz and the Dizzyspells”
American musician, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Andrew Bird’s 2009 release, Noble Beast, contains many of the elements fans have come to love about the solo artist (think hand clapping, whistling and a Mensa vocabulary). But Bird seems a bit more subdued on this go-around, with a sparer sound than his previous albums. The track “Fitz and the Dizzyspells” is a bright and cheery pop song with layered guitar lines and driving drums.
