Eels

Animal: Bird 🐦 This was dedicated to the mother of Eels' Mark Everett. "My mother was an avid birdwatcher. She had a lot of bird books and feeders that I brought with me from her house. I set up the feeders in my yard and I read the books. 'I Like Birds' was a way of staying connected to her." www.songfacts.com

From EELS in sharing The Deconstruction: "Here are 15 new EELS tracks that may or may not inspire, rock, or not rock you. The world is going nuts. But if you look for it, there is still great beauty to be found. Sometimes you don't even have to look for it. Other times you have to try to make it yourself. And then there are times you have to tear something apart to find something beautiful inside." In 2018, EELS released their 12th studio album, their first new album in 4 years, THE DECONSTRUCTION. The 2018 TRIUMPHANT RETURN OF EELS world tour began May 28th, and continued April 26 - September 15th, 2019. www.eelstheband.com
