認識BIIRD：這支沒有唱片銷售卻能震撼體育場的全女子愛爾蘭樂隊

BIIRD is an all-female group of eleven musicians who have become famous for their exciting live shows and unique style. They first performed together in Trafalgar Square on St Patrick's Day in 2024, in front of a huge crowd of 10,000 people. Some of the members had only just met that day, but their performance was a big success. Since then, BIIRD has sold out concerts across the UK and Ireland, toured with Ed Sheeran, and gained fans from all over the world, all without releasing a single album. Their popularity has grown mostly because of their energetic performances and the way people talk about them.

The founder of BIIRD, Lisa Canny, had been thinking about creating a group like this for years. She wanted to change how people see women in traditional Irish music. Instead of holding auditions, she invited musicians she already knew and respected. The group is known for their bold fashion choices, wearing dramatic outfits with corsets, glitter, and dark makeup, which is very different from the usual look of Irish folk musicians. At first, their style surprised people in the traditional music world, but now it is part of what makes them stand out. They also support Irish fashion designers by wearing their clothes on stage.

BIIRD's music is a mix of traditional Irish sounds and modern pop. They play many instruments, including fiddles, harps, flutes, banjos, and drums. The group has played at both small, intimate gigs and huge stadiums. Ed Sheeran noticed them at a festival and invited them to join his tour, which helped them reach even more fans. Now, BIIRD is working on their first album, which will include original songs. The members hope that their success will inspire more young women to play music. They are proud of what they have achieved together and want their group to last for a long time, encouraging others to follow in their footsteps.
