Nightbird Casino is a duo made up of multi-instrumentalists James Moore and Kelly Hutchinson. Existing in various forms and lineups since 2017, the band has evolved into an experimental post-punk band that blends traditional rock instrumentation with electronic music. Its songs often feature lyrical but hypnotic basslines; splashes of melodic and moody processed guitar; layers of ethereal synth textures; taut and cleverly intricate drum patterns; and richly expressive baritone lead vocals. James’s lyrics mirror the band’s abstract creativity with a poetic sense for non-linear lyrics which often feature passages juxtaposed together to create mosaics of ideas, thoughts, and feelings. Nightbird Casino has been favorably compared to Interpol, Bauhaus, Sonic Youth, The National, and Radiohead.
