The Birds
Each album features ten birds threatened with extinction from one region of the world. We use the power of music to shine a spotlight on these iconic species and their unique songs. All of the proceeds from A Guide to the Birdsong go directly to impactful, on-the-ground projects working save these species and their habitats.
The Music
On each album we invite ten artists from one region to create an original piece of music using, and inspired by, the song of an endangered bird from their country. Listen to their creations, learn about the inspiration behind their tracks and buy the albums.
About
Founded in 2014 with the first album on South America, A Guide to the Birdsong unites genre-defying music, environmentalism and crowdfunding to save the world’s most endangered species. Inspired by traditional bird guides, we explore one region at a time, showcasing the diversity of its birds and artists whilst supporting local conservation organisations working on the front-line.
