Fronted by Lynsey Ward, dubbed by\u003cbr\u003eRocksound as ‘one of the most stunning vocalists that the UK has at its disposal…’ she is\u003cbr\u003ebacked by ‘extraordinary’ bass player Jonny Knight, and ‘mighty’ drummer Matt Harrison.\u003cbr\u003eFrom early demoing in 2022 the trio have been working tirelessly to meticulously craft the\u003cbr\u003evivid world in which all twelve tracks live, and that listeners can expect to be immersed in\u003cbr\u003eonce they hit ‘play’. Sophisticated and matured, Exploring Birdsong deliver on their\u003cbr\u003edistinctive sound established in 2019, whilst pulling back the curtain on some of the more\u003cbr\u003eobscure influences that have inspired the band to make the music they will be introducing\u003cbr\u003eus to this summer.\u003cbr\u003eExploring Birdsong about the album title:\u003cbr\u003e\"Very simply, Every House We Built is an exploration of our interpersonal relationships. Be it\u003cbr\u003efriendships, familial or romantic, for the first time we have written from our experiences\u003cbr\u003erather than putting an existing story or concept to music. Houses, in this instance, are being\u003cbr\u003eused symbolically as a means to depict these connections, and how we have reflected on\u003cbr\u003eour experiences. We discuss how our, and everybody's relationships come and go much in\u003cbr\u003ethe same way that houses do - taking time to be carefully built into safe loving spaces, but\u003cbr\u003eneeding no time at all to be destroyed. Whilst the lyrics to the title track were being written,\u003cbr\u003e(and possibly because of the position of the lyric in the song itself) 'every house we built'\u003cbr\u003estuck out. After sitting with it a while, the phrase started to take on a deeper and more\u003cbr\u003eexpansive significance, triggering further ideas that eclipsed more than a singular meaning\u003cbr\u003ein one of the songs on the record - this expanse giving gradually more and more weight to\u003cbr\u003ethe idea of this being the album title. As this title came to the fore, we realised that that\u003cbr\u003emany of the songs on the album already referenced houses \/ homes and other adjacent\u003cbr\u003ethings in their lyrics. There are constant nods and threads that tie the album and its themes\u003cbr\u003etogether.\"\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTracklisting \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1.
