ARCHIVE

This month's Beakuency takes a holiday break from interviews, and focuses on bird-inspired music. Sparrow Song from Dan Melchior's "Hill Country Piano" (2024), Kate Carr's album "A Field Guide To Phantasmic Birds" (2023), "Boundaries" by Seaworthy & Matt Rösner from their album created during their artist residency at a wildlife sanctuary (2024), 0018's song "Free Proud Birds" (2024), and a few tracks from "Can You Hear Me", a brand new release by David Evans (2024).

Also on the show: outtakes from interviews with Chris Funkhouser, who was on the show in July, and with George Steel in November.

Hosted by Mayuko Fujino, "Beakuency" invites the local community to be inspired by the joy, beauty, and wisdom bird enthusiasts find in the nature of our neighborhoods. Every episode features an interview with local bird people, plus a freeform mix of sound made by birds and humans inspired by birds.
