"The bird is the word! Since 2017 Wrongbird has been flying its way through Austin with an

affinity for the absurd and a resolute sincerity. This collaboration  

between Chicago-born keyboardist and vocalist Eric Baker (of Tomar and the FCs)  

and guitarist Michael Blake takes the form of a 4 piece indie-rock back  

rounded out with bassist Dylan Hill and drummer Tim Smith. 

With their own particular brand of “wrong-rock” they blend elements  

from  60’s  sensibilities,  humorous  yet  emotional  songwriting,  and  

even  old  school  1920’s  ragtime/show  tune  theatricality.  Just  ask  

yourself,  what else would  an incorrect  songbird  do?

In  addition  to  a  fiery  live  show  of  contagious  energy,  the  band  has  

released  an  LP  Epitome  of  the  Opposite (2016)  and  an  EP  Who  is  

Wrongbird? (2018). The  single  off  that EP “The  Plot” was aired as a  

KUTX  Song  of  the  Day.  After taking a  hiatus  due  to  the  Covid-19  

pandemic,  the  bird  is  back  at  it  and  completing  work  on  a  second  

full-length  record that  is  bound  to  be  their  most  exciting  and  ambitious  work  yet."
