It takes a bit of internetting to find out anything about Blackbird Blackbird. He’s a solo artist called “Mikey” (Twitter), his surname is “Sanders” (last.fm) and comes from San Francisco (Myspace). He’s prolific, rapidly releasing free EPs such as Modern Disbelief via Bandcamp. He’s been covered in some of the more lofty blogs, meaning there’s a lot of internet love out there. He’s remixed bands like Concretes and Warpaint, meaning there are probably some labels sniffing around him by now too. Odds are, he won’t be self-releasing his gorgeous, dreamy, DIY pop songs for much longer. Stay tuned.
