This is the final of four blog entries within a bird theme. Both the band name (Chirping) and one of the songs ("Birdland") fit the theme.
Chirping is an Indie band from
Stockholm, a city that mass produces rapid-playing guitarists. Quoting the bio at the band's website,
"Chirping is an Indie rock band from Stockholm, Sweden. In its current
form the band has existed since the summer of 2011 and has played a number of
gigs and recorded the single Birdland and the EP The Sirens." The band members are Carl Vikberg (vocals and
guitar), Johan Melander (Guitar), Viktor Åström (bass guitar) and Björn Rudling
(drums).
The guitar work sometimes resembles U2, while the vocals approach The National (although with less ease in those lower reaches). So, they are skilled. But how do they make a living? Their website indicates that their recent live performances have been free to attend, and the songs they post are Free, Legal and Recommended (FLR) downloads.
