Inspired by the crystalline chill of the north country she calls home in Minnesota, Humbird combines a wintry longing with the warmth of a familiar folktale. Humbird’s music moves between experimental folk and environmental Americana to embrace the unexpected. Siri Undlin, the singer-songwriter behind the moniker, witnessed the power of storytelling in her childhood home and began writing music and performing in choirs and Irish ensembles from a young age. Her voice, which contains the unwavering fortitude of hymnal melodies, reveals her traditional background. In 2019, Humbird released the critically acclaimed, debut full-length, Pharmakon, which introduced us to Humbird’s harmonic folk style. With Folk Alley calling the album “... an absolutely hypnotic listening experience.” Atwood Magazine described it as music wrapped in “gentle rebellion”. The release garnered a wide range of accolades, including 89.3FM The Current’s “Best Local Albums Of The Year”, and as an official showcasing artist at SXSW in Austin. Humbird’s sophomore record Still Life (October 2021) was born during the time when the days melted into weeks of the pandemic. It is a record about a house - each song symbolizing a different room where ordinary things happen. But 'Still Life' is also about what happens outside of a house - it weaves through the rippling events that took place in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 2020 – a city reckoning with anger, grief, and white supremacy while the world watched.
