If Regina Spektor and Missy Higgins had a child it would have the eccentric vocals of Sam Buckingham. The quirky songstresss sweet pop sound and strong Aussie accent makes Im a Bird a chilled soundtrack for a lazy afternoon.The title track and album opener has a leisurely, delightful tone and features an actual bird chirping in the background. The tempo kicks in and by Mountain Sun she introduces a more whimsical, circus-like instrumental sound, followed by the charismatic a capella track Tomorrow Ill Wear Black. Beautifully direct and emotional, Im a Bird is a modern folk collection with a slow tempo and intimate feel conveying Buckinghams acoustic take on love songs.
