The Birdsongs are an American Christian rock band originally from Seattle, WA, now living near Knoxville, Tennessee composed of three brothers and a sister, who began playing together as a family at a very young age. As a band, they have maintained a constant touring presence and have become increasingly popular at festivals, camps, youth events, and churches. In recent years, they have played shows with hit artists such as The Newsboys, Sanctus Real, RED, and Rush of Fools. The Birdsongs released their first two radio singles in 2009 and 2010 and have since gained tremendous radio success with both singles ("Pieces (Hold On)" and "So Much More"). The two singles both charted and have been enjoying steady airplay ever since. Their third single "Will You Save Me?" debuted on radio on July 23, 2012 and hit #23 on Billboard's National Christian Rock Airplay Chart. The album "The Journey: Act I; The Beginning" released shortly after in November 2012. Their latest single "This Isn't Love" released on February 14, 2014 and peaked at #9 on Billboard. They are expected to release "The Journey: Act II; The War" in Summer 2018.
