The Bird and The Bee & The Trees and The Wild (similar name? it just a name)

The Bird and The Bee

The Bird and The Bee is an indie/Synthpop/alternative musical duo from Los Angeles, consisting of musicians Inara George ("the bird") and Greg Kurstin ("the bee"). Kurstin, a producer and keyboardist who has worked with Lily Allen, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Beck, Barenaked Ladies, The Flaming Lips, Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue and Red Hot Chili Peppers, is also a member of the band Geggy Tah. George and Kurstin met while the two were working on her debut album and they decided to collaborate on a jazz-influenced electro pop project. Their debut EP, Again and Again and Again and Again, was released in October 2006 and their debut album was released on January 23, 2007, on Blue Note Records.

The Trees and The Wild

The Trees and The Wild might still unfamiliar in the ear of some of you guys. The band was just starting. Friendships formed from personnel from each school. Andra and Remedy friends since high school and never made an acoustic project together while in college. While the Iga is a friend Andra in a blues band, Enterprising John who was also his friend since junior high. In 2006 they began trying to write some songs. Some works finally created. From there the journey of The Trees and The Wild begins. They offer a simple acoustic music composition and memanja ear. Easily digestible and quite minimalist.

Honeymoon on Ice is the first single from their being introduced to the public and get a good appreciation of one of the young radio capital. The song was inspired by a film by Michel Gondry's "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind."
