The Black Birds are an Austin, Texas based three-piece rock & roll band made up of  seasoned veterans from other notable bands. Wearing their musical influences like a badge of honor, you can hear moments reminiscent of The New York Dolls, The Runaways, Generation X and dare we even say....Chuck Berry. 

A band that doesn't rely on gratuitous guitar solos and complicated arrangements but rather stays focused on writing simple, heart-pounding, catchy rock songs with memorable hooks, and an energetic tempo.
