In the organizer's words:

Birds On A Wire on tour again in Germany in June 2026

After the duo Birds On A Wire played an exclusive concert in Berlin this fall, the two musicians behind the project have now announced three new concerts for June 2026.

When the French-American singer Rosemary Standley - who previously played with Moriarty - and the French-Brazilian cellist Dom La Nena first met, their musical collaboration was originally planned exclusively for a series of concerts at the Cité de la Musique in Paris. But the two artists not only got on brilliantly right from the start due to their common roots and their respective classical training - Standley's all-encompassing voice and La Nena's breathtaking cello playing also harmonized with each other in a very special way from the very first second.

Together, the duo began to reinterpret song classics beyond the initial series of events. Inspired by Leonard Cohen's "Birds On The Wire", the two began releasing cover versions as "Birds on a Wire" - and were immediately well received. Their self-titled debut album was released in this style in 2014, which reinterpreted songs from the two musicians' childhood as well as baroque classics and Latin American folk songs. Six years later, the musical palette was broadened on the second album "Ramages" in 2020. Classics were joined by songs by Pink Floyd, Violeta Parra, Jacques Brel and others, which expanded the sound variation of Birds on a Wire and added a stormy facet to the gentle, urgent side that suits the duo very well. After a special collaboration with the Louvre in Paris, in which Birds on a Wire created an immersive musical journey through the famous museum and enriched the audience with their engaging live performance, the third studio album "Nuées ardentes" has now been released, on which the musicians also take on well-known pop and rock songs for the first time. From Bronski Beat to The Cure and The Doors, iconic songs are given a new twist by the two musicians.

The concerts are presented by kulturnews, event. and MusikBlog.de.
