Exploring Birdsong Release New Track, Co-Written With Sir Paul McCartney

Exploring Birdsong worked alongside a genuine musical legend for their beautiful new track.

Exploring Birdsong are back, and they are back with a bang.

The band have shared their first new music since 2019’s ‘The Thing With Feathers’ EP.

It’s called ‘Ever The Optimist’ and is a track that bristles with colourful melodies and vibrant atmospheres. It is bright, layered and beautiful, and it was co-written alongside Sir Paul McCartney.

Yeah, that one. Yeah, really.

Let the band explain:

“This song certainly has the most interesting back story to any of the tracks we’ve written. When in university back in 2018, Lyns and Matt were given the opportunity to have a one on one songwriting session with Sir Paul McCartney. This is the song they took into the session and worked on with Sir Paul himself. It’s by far the poppiest song on the record and was the catalyst for centring our songs around synths as well as sole piano parts.”

Pretty amazing, right?
