MEGAN BIRD – SINGLE REVIEW

Megan Bird – Affirmation
Megan Bird - Affirmation

Release Date: Out Now

Megan Bird might initially appear to be another pop starlet in waiting, albeit with ripped jeans and Converse trainers. However, on the evidence of new single ‘Affirmation’, Bird has skipped the pop star bit and moved straight on to the rock phase a la Avril Lavigne. This is the kind of pop-rock cross-over that most rock bands would kill for in terms of radio play and all pop acts would sell their Grannies for in terms of credibility. Bird’s voice is more mature than her 19 years should allow while the musicianship is firmly in the McBusted camp, but it works and this is a triumphant slice of rock-pop that does a great job of breaking down any preconceptions. “There’s nothing left but to write this song, it’s over your head but just sing along” goes the pre-chorus lyric and you can’t help but feel there’s more than meets the eye and ear here.


Live Dates:

12th October – The Railway Inn, Winchester
23rd October – The Joiners, Southampton
