🤠 Drumming Bird
is the main vehicle of singer-songwriter Austin Sawyer. Sawyer has been writing and performing music as Drumming Bird for over a decade, meticulously crafting a sound that lies somewhere between the youthful noise of indie-rock and the poignant working-class introspection of Americana.
The growth of Drumming Bird’s burgeoning fanbase has been catalyzed by national TV placements, including on Showtime’s hit show, Shameless, captivating live performances at many of the nation’s flagship clubs and a growing reputation as one of the most authentic voices writing music today.
The title track of Drumming Bird’s 2022 release, American Spirits, scored him second place finishes in Unsigned Only’s 2022 Songwriting Contest and American Songwriter’s 2022 Song Contest. The following single “Electric Cowboy” landed on Spotify’s editorial playlists: Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds: Rock and Grade A.
Drumming Bird’s new record, Roadkill Poetry, was produced by Oscar-nominated songwriter Mike Viola (Panic! At The Disco, Andrew Bird, Jenny Lewis), with Griffin Goldsmith (Dawes), Sebastian Steinberg (Fiona Apple, Iron & Wine, Soul Coughing) and Viola as the backing band. Its singles have landed on Spotify’s “Fresh Finds: Folk” and Apple Music’s “New in Alternative” and “New in Rock” playlists.

😇 Dickie
Previously featured in Paste Magazine, NME, and American Songwriter, Dickie has focused on crafting beautiful, introspective songs in the vein of Andrew Bird, Elliott Smith, and Phoebe Bridgers. His extensive touring history has found him sharing stages with Wilco, Young the Giant, Blind Pilot, and Justin Townes Earle.
DICKIE’s latest EP “Headful of Hiss” (2024) was engineered and produced at Golden Bear Records with Bryan Vanderpool (notably one half of the illustrious folk-pop duo The Well Pennies). The album presents lush folk, irresistibly catchy pop, yearning alternative, windswept heartland rock, and the timeless sensibility of ’60s classics.

Her latest full-length album “Partner” was released via Crutch of Memory Enterprises late 2024, of which Matt Wild (Milwaukee Record) praised its “ten gorgeous and deliberately paced tracks, escaping reality one minute and tussling with the physical the next.”
