Describing their sound as &#8216;melodic soulful indie-folk&#8217;, Hvmmingbyrd focuses on two and three part harmonies, resulting in an absolutely gorgeous feast for the ears.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Formed in County Kildare, Ireland, Hvmmingbyrd comprises friends Deborah Byrne, Becca Carroll, Dolores Fogarty and Helen Lane. They remind us a lot of Clannad, and 90s group, Wilson Phillips. Soft, soothing, relaxing &#8211; but with a bit of an edge. Their album has enjoyed a lot of success on Irish radio &#8211; tracks have been on regular rotation on RT\u00c9 Radio 1, Lyric FM and Dublin City FM (plus more). This year the band was named one of Hot Press &#8216;Super Six&#8217; of 2015 &#8211; high praise from Ireland&#8217;s go-to music magazine!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can find Hvmmingbyrd online on their <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hvmmingbyrd.com\">website<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/facebook.com\/hvmmingbyrd\">Facebook<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hvmmingbyrd\">Twitter<\/a>.
