Inside the performance

Sound, stage & company

The sound

The musical character

Birds of Chicago is an Americana/folk duo formed in 2012 by JT Nero and Allison Russell. Known for their lush, gospel-tinged harmonies and a blend of folk, roots, and soul, the pair launched their self-released debut, Birds of Chicago, via Kickstarter in June 2012. The project quickly garnered attention for its intimate storytelling and radiant vocal chemistry. Although the band announced an indefinite hiatus in early 2021, fans continue to celebrate their catalog and individual projects that keep the Birds' spirit alive in the broader folk and roots music scene.
