The Gardens promises to be a fine setting for a concert featuring the Bowerbirds and their enchanting ramshackle tunes – music that blends earthy forest-wrought folk with lush seascape vocals. The online indie trendsetter Pitchfork wrote this in praise of them: “[Bowerbirds] manage to be both hypnotically pretty and a little bit weird – characteristics of the very best kind of Americana music.”
