Hailed by The New Yorker as “one of the finest, most searching songwriters of the day,” Gabriel Kahane has often approached his work from the vantage point of an observer. With Magnificent Bird, Kahane tells his own story in a collection of songs written in self-imposed isolation — a full year off the internet. 

Described by the San Francisco Chronicle as “a gorgeous, intimate collection of ten musical snapshots,” Kahane shuttles between quotidian observations and the overlapping national and global crises to create a portrait of life in the roiling chaos of the 21st century. He performs with the Grammy Award-winning Attacca Quartet.
