Details
Brooklyn artist John Brodeur adopted Bird Streets as his nom de guerre with the release of a self-titled 2018 LP. Produced by indie-pop hero Jason Falkner, the album was a refreshing blast of classic-yet-modern melodic rock that received accolades from PopMatters (“a rock solid power-pop gem”) and NPR Music, which named Bird Streets a Slingshot Artist alongside then-emerging talents like Phoebe Bridgers and The Beths. For Lagoon, his second album under the Bird Streets moniker, Brodeur expanded on the project’s collaborative foundation, enlisting production by Patrick Sansone (Wilco) and Michael Lockwood (Fiona Apple), plus guest appearances from Ed Harcourt, Aimee Mann, and Big Star’s Jody Stephens. Simultaneously epic and intimate, Lagoon has been called “sublime” (Coachella Valley Weekly), “luxurious and literate” (Rock & Roll Truth), and “an emotional tour de force” (Glide). A new album is expected in fall 2025.
