Strangebyrds songs are like the landscape of life revealing all of the colors and strata of emotions and time both past and present. Over the last eight years Strangebyrds – Cari Minor & Ray Smith – have honed and perfected a sound they call “Blue Collar Folk.” Their latest album Star Crossed Lovers (May, 2018) was recorded on the Dingle Coast in Ireland and in their home studio Byrd Nest Recording. Minor was selected as a top ten finalist for her song “Willy” from the new album (a song about the women who fought in the Civil War dressed as men) at both the 2016 Rocky Mountain Folks Festival-New Song Contest and the 2017 Telluride Bluegrass Festival-Troubadour Songwriting Contest. Smith wrote the background music score for the Muscle Shoals Film Documentary which won best film at BIFF in 2013. For Strangebyrds it is never about the destination, it’s all about the joy of the journey.
