MAGPIE AND BIRD CITY
at Motel Chelsea
Join Magpie and Bird City for a sweet Sunday show at the Motel Chelsea.
MAGPIE
Magpie is a Guelph-based indie folk rock band with multiple songwriters, layered harmonies, warm ukelele, and a musical saw sweetening the soundscape. Watch for their new album, High Plains, coming out September 2022. Magpie is Marnie McCourty, Grant MacLeod, Anna Bowen, Dave Snider, and Scott Haynes.
BIRD CITY
As a beloved fixture of the music community in and around Guelph, Ontario, Mitchell has been a member of the Barmitzvah Brothers, the Burning Hell, Richard Laviolette and the Oil Spills, as well as performing under her solo alter ego Jenny Omnichord. Bird City is in many ways an evolution of the last concept, with Mitchell trading her Omnichord for the banjo and tenor guitar. Focusing on these instruments finally allowed Mitchell’s songwriting talents to fully blossom, and the exposed and poetic songs of paranoia, heartbreak and self-examination on Winnowing, the debut Bird City album, encapsulate the last 15 years of Mitchell’s life.
