Acclaimed young alt-pop/prog trio Exploring Birdsong debut their new single and music video “Ever The Optimist.” Their first new music in three years since 2019’s EP The Thing With Feathers, the single was co-written with Sir Paul McCartney.

The band comments:

“This song certainly has the most interesting back story to any of the tracks we’ve written. When in university back in 2018, Lyns and Matt were given the opportunity to have a one on one songwriting session with Sir Paul McCartney. This is the song they took into the session and worked on with Sir Paul himself. It’s by far the poppiest song on the record and was the catalyst for centring our songs around synths as well as sole piano parts.”

Exploring Birdsong consists of:

Lynsey Ward – Vocals, piano
Jonny Knight – Bass guitar, synthesizer
Matt Harrison – Drums, percussion
