Review

"A rolling landscape of lap steels, musical saws, and ukuleles that creates a whimsical feeling; the perfect compliment to the somber vocal stylings of singer Mark Janka ... Records like this only come along a few times a year. Buy it, don't burn it." - ROCKPILE "So gorgeous it's almost toxic, with layers of trilling acoustic guitar and strings shimmering around Mark Janka's breathy, drony singing." - CHICAGO READER "It's the kind of music you want to paper your apartment with, etching wistful moods and expansive backdrops from floor to ceiling ... Lesser Birds of Paradise have captured something simply, gorgeously epic." - SPLENDID

Since 1998, The Lesser Birds of Paradise have evolved from charming folk-pop to a more ambitious, textured craft. Over the last few years, their sound has been refined to its most organic elements, and their appeal has developed beyond the Chicago indie rock scene. Space Between, the trio's third album, is their strongest and most focused work yet.

The Lesser Birds' subtle experiments and arrangements, which acted as flourishes on previous releases, developed into integral muscle on the mesmeric Space Between. With emphasis on every detail, Space Between opens up secret passageways of sound in which melodies aren't so much played as naturally grown; where single notes, pump organs, xylophones, muted drums, and echoing voices layer in a warm, seductive embrace. Coupled with tapestries of American Gothic narratives, sly humor, animal characters, and Robert Creeley-cum-Charles Olson poetics, The Lesser Birds of Paradise have created a record of lasting impression and importance, and emerge as one of the more original bands today.
