On the cusp of releasing their first official single ‘Walls’, Oh Ye Denver Birds have announced their first headline tour along the East Coast. Oh Ye Denver Birds will be venturing to Melbourne, Sydney, Newcastle and Toowoomba before returning home to Brisbane for a final show at the Troubadour.
Once again proving the power of DIY in the modern music industry, Oh Ye Denver Birds have attracted media attention since their core member Dom Stephens uploaded a self-made stop motion video to one of his tracks ‘Here Within Ourselves’. Check it out below:

The five-piece formed in June of 2009 and began to play shows together throughout Brisbane and Sydney. Since then, Oh Ye Denver Birds have shared stages with the likes of Akron Family (USA), Castanets (USA), Leader Cheetah, Cloud Control and friends John Steel Singers.
Their first single ‘Walls’ captures the atmospheric and organic nature of the band’s development and is their first track recorded in the studio. A change from their preferred DIY bedroom recordings, ‘Walls’ represents the beginning of what is to be an exciting year ahead as Oh Ye Denver Birds prepare to record their debut EP later this year.
‘Walls’ is available for free download by signing up to the mailing list at Oh Ye Denver Birds’ myspace, but you can listen to it below:
